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 1960’s, 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.
