Beauy and simplicity is the slogan of the Soft Lamp, which the Dutch designer Arian Brekveld designed for Droog in 1995.

The plain diffusor is made of soft PVC, which is made of a traditional dive technique method. Because the light shade is made of the same material as the eöctro cable, it appears as fusion od the lamp shade and cable.

By now there is an innovation of the Soft Lamp with some corrections. Besides the ise of a new glue for the dive technique method the whole surface of the lamp was reworked. Especially the Soft Lamp was endowed with new economical and energy saving 7 Watt light bulbs. The durability of the light bulb is circa 8000 hours, that's eight times longer than a conventional light bulb. To that the illuminant develops almost no warmth, through hich the staining of the synthetic material is avoided.
