Description

Bestlite lamps are steeped in a triumphant design history. Robert Dudley Best drew the first drafts of the lamp that would later become synonymous with his name when he studied to become an industrial designer in Paris and Dusseldorf. As the lamp was the first example of Bauhaus in the UK, strong arguments were needed before the lamp could be put into production. The lamp was produced by the manufacturing firm Best & Lloyd, founded by Best's family in 1840. After mention in the prominent architectural magazine, Architects' Journal, the architectural community opened its eyes to the lamp's potential. Bestlite gained everlasting fame when Winston Churchill placed one on his desk in Whitehall.

Bestlite

Some of the best designs come from designer while they were in their early years when it could be argued that acts of procrastination have procured some of the best modern designs out there.

Such is the story behind Bestlite. Robert Dudley Best created the original Bestlite lamp while studying to be an industrial designer in Paris and Dusseldorf, possibly while avoiding studying for exams (though we can’t confirm that). The lamp later became the first example of Bauhaus work in the United Kingdom and later garnered great fame and respect as a modern lighting fixture. Today, Gubi manufactures the lamp to the exact original specifications of Robert’s original design.
