Modular TYPE 505 wall light with adjustable arm, switch and plug cable With its minimalist design and focus on functionality, the TYPE 505 wall light from the modular series is a cutting-edge light source. However, the concept is already around a century old: the engineer Curt Fischer (1890 - 1956), who became known as the inventor of "steerable light", created the original models no. 113 and 114 to equip pioneering new buildings in the Bauhaus style at the time. The company midgard, founded by Fischer, still manufactures the lights today, including all components, at sites in Germany. The 505 version has a long, two-part arm, three joints and is equipped with a plug-in cable for outstanding flexibility. Aluminium is used on the inside of the round lampshade, which is bevelled at the light outlet. The outside of the lampshade, the arm and the wall mount are powder-coated in a single colour. It is operated using the rotary switch on the dome of the lampshade.
