Table lamp in steel and aluminium. Biny in a few words: efficiency, simplicity, sobriety and elegance. Designed in 1957 by Jacques Biny, this lamp provides both soft and efficient lighting. Conceived for comfortable reading, the fins can be adjusted via a wheel to direct the light to the precise part of the surface you want to illuminate.
Jacques Biny is a major French luminary from the era of the glorious 30s. Unlike other designers, he is also a publisher (serial Industrial manufacturer) and has collaborated with some of the best young designers of his time, such as Michel Buffet, Gustave Gauthier, Jean Boris Lacroix or Charles Ramos. Together, they embarked on the adventure of serial modern lighting.
In 1955, Jacques Biny opened Luminalite, his workshop for producing modern lighting. The Designer-Manufacturer who was born in 1913 developed over 400 models during a 30 year career. Jacques Biny’s hallmark was rigour and he never stopped in his quest to improve how homes were lit. Functionality was primary, the lack of superfluity in the form reminiscent of the Minimalist movement that was gaining currency in American art during the 1960s, which may go to explain why his work is as popular with American collectors as it is with Europeans.
Efficiency and simplicity, restraint, elegance and modesty are the common denominators in Jacques Biny’s work.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
