Mini Lampe de Marseille - projecting, adjustable wall light with double-sided light emission This version of the Lampe de Marseille wall light is a slightly smaller version of its big sister. The characteristic head of the series, which has a flat conical shade on one side and a narrow conical shade on the other, also adorns Mini Lampe de Marseille. The arm can be tilted and rotated at two points so that the position and inclination of the head can be adjusted and the lounge area can be illuminated by either a narrow or a wide beam of light. The switch on the plug cable enables separate operation, so that direct and indirect light can be activated individually or simultaneously. The wall light is part of a series that the Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier intended to equip the "Unité d'Habitation" type of residential building he designed. After an initial realisation in Marseille in 1947, further examples of the "Unité d'Habitation" were also built in other French cities and in Berlin until 1965.
