ABOUT NORM
NORM is a multidisciplinary design studio focusing on residential architecture, commercial interiors and industrial design. NORM was founded in 2008 by architects Kasper Rønn and Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen by their vocation to create timeless architecture and meaningful design products.
PHILOSOPHY
The justification of a product lies in its ability to differentiate; aesthetically and in functionality. With a determined focus on the good idea, right materials and fine craftsmanship, NORMs primary endeavour is to create useful products, appealing design, and architecture that captures and inspire life.
FUNCTION
Function is the primary aim in creating architecture and designing products. All projects and products by NORM always starts with a revelation of a need or when facing a problem. Whether it’s functional or aesthetic, there can be no NORM without a purpose.
MINIMALISM
Our home and the things we surround ourselves with, should provide a refuge from the daily chaos, which seems to dominate our world. By understanding minimalism as an aesthetic, and simplicity as a philosophy of life, NORM aims at providing structures which gives a feeling of freedom.
MATERIALS
As part of the Scandinavian tradition and inspired by Nordic sceneries, natural materials with a touch of poetry, combined with rationality characterise the NORM expression.
In addition to beautiful workmanship and aesthetic simplicity, the essence of viability and long lasting products lies in keeping an uncensored relationship with nature.
LIGHT
The right light not only supports and stress beautiful architecture. It also brings sensuousness to rooms, buildings and objects. Thus, by making architecture integrate natural light and in the right arrangement of artificial light, particular atmospheres are supported and adapted to each of NORMs projects.
