Description
Originally designed in the early 1930s by pioneering architect and designer Charlotte Perriand, the Nemo Lighting Applique Cylindrique Petite Wall Light remains a striking example of functional modernist lighting. Created for Perriand’s mountain chalet, Le Vieux Matelot, the design reflects her fascination with intuitive movement and the relationship between people and objects within a living space.
The wall light features a clean cylindrical silhouette paired with an adjustable rotating screen that allows the direction and intensity of the light to be altered with a simple gesture. This thoughtful functionality enables the light to transition effortlessly between focused task lighting and softer atmospheric illumination, making it ideal for bedrooms, reading corners, hallways, and contemporary living spaces.
Elegant in its simplicity, the Applique Cylindrique Petite embodies the timeless principles of early modernist design while remaining highly relevant for modern interiors. Its compact proportions make it especially versatile, while the sculptural form adds architectural character even when unlit.
Produced by Nemo Lighting, this enduring design celebrates Charlotte Perriand’s visionary approach to lighting, where practicality, movement, and understated beauty exist in perfect balance.
