The spanish lighting manufacturer fase was founded in madrid in 1964 by industrial designer pedro martin. It represented "a design proposal of great modernity for the time, never seen before"... And it still is. Why Because of the "totally original combination of metal and wood, fantastic chrome and a beautiful range of colors". Also, for its incredible capacity for movement, "thanks to a sophisticated ball-and-socket joint system conceived by fase's early designers". As a result, fase became a very popular brand in spain and was also successfully exported to europe and the united states, becoming one of the biggest business successes of the spanish industry in the 1970s.
