Based out of Kassel, Germany, Frambach designed this unique [bedside lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wake-sleep-light) to easily fit between different crevices and spaces inside a home. This cushioned light is made from a foamed polyurethane material that causes the light to give off a [warm and ambient glow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-varmblixt-smart-lights). The design and soft touch of the lamp also encourages users to interact and place the light wherever they need an extra bit of illumination. The lamp is even soft enough that it doubles as both a [late night reading light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-player), and a cushioning pillow if you begin to feel yourself nod off to sleep. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Flexible Lighting:** There is an opportunity to explore more designs for flexible lighting products that offer ease of use and customization - **Interactive Lighting:** Developers can build more interactive lighting products by focusing more on designs that encourage user interaction - **Multi-purpose Lighting:** Designers can explore the possibilities of a multi-purpose lighting product that also doubles as a functional object ### Where This Applies - **Lighting:** Companies involved in lighting can focus on creating more innovative and flexible lighting solutions like 26-year-old Simon Frambach's 'Soft Light' - **Furniture:** Furniture companies can collaborate with lighting designers to create furniture with integrated innovative lighting solutions - **Home Decor:** Home decor industry can focus on offering multi-functional decor items, such as Simon Frambach's 'Soft Light' ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Flexible Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anywhereuse-lamp.md) - [Ambient Aesthetically Pleasing Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pofu.md) - [Hollow Candle-Like Table Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lampe.md) - [Malleable Connected Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pofu-lamp.md) - [Inflatable Colorful Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squeeze-inflatable-lamp.md) - [Inflatable Mood Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blow-lamp.md) - [Space-Saving Desk Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacesaving-desk-lamp.md) - [Silkworm-Inspired Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-lighting.md) - [Sculptural Glass Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuloa.md)
