Bertrand Balas, architect born in Toulouse in 1935 likes to watch the sun set over the Garonne river.
With that musical lilt typical of the south, he likes to say : « It does me good. »
In August 1970 he designed the lamp Here Comes the Sun. At first glance, this original design is like all the other lamps that get called an ‘Original’.
But once lit, the Here Comes the Sun hanging lamp takes on a magical quality. Darkness looses its rawness and metamorphoses into something reassuring.
