Droog Slow Glow Lamp designed by NEXT Architects and Aura Luz Melis - The light source is immersed in fat. As the heat of the light slowly melts the substance, an intriguing process gradually unravels before your eyes: the light glows brighter and brighter and the lamp becomes warmer and warmer. Nice and slow.

About the Designers:
NEXT architects is an architecture practice that covers the full spectrum of the architectural field. Since 1999 NEXT has explored the boundaries of its own discipline, and searched for areas that overlap with others. This exploratory attitude has resulted in a highly diverse portfolio that ranges from design products to urban plans.
NEXT architects owes its innovative character to the correlation between research practice and design practice. Being connected to the actual practice is vital to the development and exploration of the discipline, which doesn't just concern the development of ideas, but also the concrete implications of those ideas. NEXT architects starts each project with an intensive workshop, approaching every commission openly and without prejudice, developing it from its essence.
NEXT architects are Bart Reuser, Marijn Schenk, Michel Schreinemachers and John van de Water. They trained at Delft University of Technology and teach at a number of educational institutes. Before starting NEXT architects, they worked for various leading Dutch architecture firms.
About Droog:
Droog started in 1993 as a statement on design, a no-nonsense, down to earth design mentality. Their unique way of thinking has defined as a conceptual design company over the last 16 years, and has played a role in defining Dutch design internationally. Droog values what it means to be human, including subjectivity, notions of beauty and meaning, and desire for high quality experiences at the core of what they do. Droog stands for a luxury of content and experience that change perspective on daily life-- whether it is authenticity, humor, slowness, engagement, or nature, the abundance of what is scarce is true luxury.
