Belgian designer Christophe Gevers (1928 - 2007) was known for his multifaceted contributions to architecture, interior design, furniture, and lighting. Born in 1928, he studied architecture at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Ghent, developing a minimalist yet functional design style.

In the 60s and 70s he build an intriguing body of work from which we find little information today. Little known to the general public, Christophe Gevers can be counted among the leading interior designers of the postwar period.

He designed the interiors of a wide range of restaurants and brasseries in Brussels, designed several bank buildings and gave shape to various furniture, lighting fixtures, some of which are still in production today by Quattro Benelux and Axis 71. He started his own company Gevers Design and was thirty-three years a teacher at La Cambre in the Department of decor and furnishings. The CG01 table lamp stands as a testament to Gevers' legacy, combining beauty, functionality, and an enduring aesthetic vision.
