Serge Mouille designed his angular,  insect-like lights as "a reaction to the Italian models that were  beginning to invade the market in 1950," which he criticized for being  "too complicated." His large-scale Three-Arm Floor Lamp (1952) has a  kinetic, sculptural aesthetic that evokes a sense of movement in space.  All of the arms can be rotated in various directions, allowing for  ample, well-directed lighting for any task.

Mouille designed the  Three-Arm Lamp for a client whose instructions were simply, "I want a  big light because I have clients in South America who have huge rooms."  All of his lighting solutions feature Mouille's hallmark signatures as a  designer: the way the arms are joined to the diffusers, the washer and  six-sided screw hardware, the form of the reflectors, and the refined  lines of the steel tubing.
