1 BORNE BÉTON GRANDE
Designed by Le Corbusier for the Unité d’habitation in Marseille in 1952, this brutalist floor light has been reissued with LED technology for the North American market. Weighing in at almost 53 kilograms and standing nearly 60 centimetres tall, each lamp is handcrafted from concrete and can illuminate large expanses. nemolighting.com
