Designer Bio:
The ingenuity of a German immigrant, Walter von Nessen, has had far-reaching effects on contemporary lamp design. It goes back to 1927 when he set up Nessen Studios in New York's Murray Hill section to design and fabricate architectural lighting. He quickly attracted a following among the leading architects of that time who commissioned him to design lighting and other household objects for their clients, making him one of the first industrial designers and a member of a new movement whose inner circle was to include such well-known names as Walter Dorwin Teague, Donald Deskey, Gilbert Rhode and Russell Wright. Von Nessen's prestige, training and work in Germany in the early '20s, before emigrating to the United States in 1925, at the age of 35, were rooted in intricate manufacturing as well as furniture design techniques - invaluable groundwork for his own unique design concepts. By 1930, critics, manufacturers and museum heads were beginning to refer to him as an industrial design trailblazer and champion of modern design. Of all von Nessen designs, however, lamps were always in the forefront of new trends. A probable reason for this was expressed in a 1930 edition of Lamp Buyers Journal (the forerunner of Home Lighting and Accessories): "The latest, newest most radical expressions of art in industry seem particularly applicable to lamps because a lamp highlights a room and it may well be extreme...and it strives to be an expression of ourselves, our times and our environment."
