The Midgard lamp has the advantage of being extremely practical as it can be adjusted in several different ways. In the 1920s the Bauhaus used it in their workshops as they considered it useful and convenient lighting. Marianne Brandt, comparing Curt Fischer's light with the general Bauhaus model, said: "even if our lights are adjustable, they are not as elegant and we envied the creator of the Midgard lamp."
