Designed in 1965 by the architect couple Janine Abraham and Dirk Jan Rol but never released, this luminaire was produced for the first time in 2019 by Disderot.Janine Abraham and Dirk Jan Rol were famous designers of their time. They were both from leading French schools of Art and Design and worked together almost all their lives. Their aesthetic partnership, and their skills in using many different types of material, allowed them to create iconic 20th-century furniture, such as the Sun Chair and the convertible AR bench. They were also architects and built beautiful houses that were in harmony with nature. Their lighting is unique, demonstrating a perfect balance between tradition and modernity, classic style, and attention to the finest detail.After studying engineering, Pierre Disderot opened his first studio in 1948. His collaboration with the young avant-garde designers, Pierre Guariche, JosephAndré Motte, Alain Richard, and Michel Mortier, led him to create what is today considered to be the best lighting of the nineteen fifties. His aesthetic abilities and knowledge allowed him to design an important part of the Disderot catalog, revealing, beyond the publisher, an artist of the first-order.
