SoftPhone Concept

Imagine a phone made from cotton. Soft, pliable, and light yet never compromising on power or performance. The Soft Phone concept by designer Qian Jiang takes what we know about electronic cellulose structures and squeezes every last ounce of performance out of it, literally!

The Soft Phone concept by designer Qian Jiang. A soft, squeezable phone that can take a beating inside my jeans or wallet and still be good. The Soft Phone is constructed of a series of discs with electronic fabric stretched in between. The cell antenna, battery, camera, and micro electronics are all contained and protected inside a small clip which itself is made of soft, squeezable, stress-reducing silica. So when your boss or wife shouts at you in a call, you can just squeeze the phone to relieve your stress.

The idea behind this phone concept is that it brings ideas together from past and present with its wood styling and smartphone functionality. The wood and rock casing is supposed bring together nature and technology, but it just looks like a piece of 70s tech.

Internally you have your typical smartphone design; touchscreen, camera, slim but the physical design differs greatly.
