The name of this lamp is a bow to the Berlin modernist Fridtjof Schliephacke, an arc hitect, designer, professor and friend of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe who was virtually unknown outside his hometown. Following in his footsteps, company founder Martin Wallroth designed a highly sober, technically and aesthetically high-scale lamp series perfectly exemplified by the model Fridtjof. Optically, the infinitely adjustable hanging lamp, whose grey colour comes from the silver-anodized aluminium of the housing, describes three parallel lines in space. The cables are extremely thin thanks to the low voltage used. The simple bar form is high-tech, reserved and goes well with both professional and private surroundings. The lighting element itself, enclosed by two corner profiles, was chosen for the desired light effect. Thanks to the variable height and the light that radiates laterally from both ends, an area more than double the length of the lamp itself can be illuminated. Special glass makes the light softer and warmer, affording by means of a slightly stepped-back bulb level an almost glare - free light despite the streamlined, reduced form. The joint in the aluminium body lets a bit of light stream upward as well. All in all, the result is a surprisingly complex, but pleasantly measured lighting situation.
