GUBI Bestlite BL5 Wall Lamp Matt White
The BL5 the wall light from Bestlite is an elegant and simple wall lamp - a timeless classic that has become famous worldwide. It is no coincidence that Winston Churchill himself fell for Bestlite, which he had on his desk during World War II. The series creates style in any room and provides an extremely pleasant light wherever the lamps are placed. The Bestlite lamp is even exhibited at the Design Museum in London. The wall lamp's clean lines and elegant expression are completed by the functionality of the movable arm, so that the lamp can be adjusted as desired. It is therefore no coincidence that this particular lamp has become a hit worldwide.
GUBI Bestlite BL5 Wall Lamp - Ø16 (Chrome, Soft White Semi Matt)
Designed by the British designer Robert Dudley Best in 1930, the Bestlite BL5 Wall Lamp exudes simplicity and clean shapes in line with the school from Bauhaus, which the designer was highly influenced by. With its adjustable arm, both horizontal and vertical, and movable shade, the Bestlite BL5 Wall Lamp suits well by the desk, as a bedside lamp or in the kitchen where the light needs to be directed. The Bestlite lamp design was first adopted by garages and the Royal Air Force engineering departments due to its great functionality. A feature in Architects Journal lauding Bestlite with the title of the first evidence of Bauhaus in Britain brought the lamp to the attention of the design conscious. Public demand for the Bestlite lamps soon followed and, when Winston Churchill personally chose the Bestlite BL1 Table Lamp for his desk, Bestlite's iconic status was secured. The Bestlite design stays close to its industrial roots and true to its original design. Bestlite is held in permanent collections at both the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Design Museum in London. Loved by architects, designers and design aficionados throughout its long history, today, Bestlite has become a contemporary classic.
