Brandt Collective
Being a ubiquitous feature in the home, hardware has a repetitive, everyday engaging presence, reflecting a fundamental aspect of human interaction with the built environment.
BRANDT Collective launches three new collections – Leaf, Terrace & Button – designed by Norm Architects through a spatial arrangement of said hardware and objects showcased on bespoke furniture at the Chevron showroom. The REPETITIONS exhibition transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary – emphasizing the interplay between form, materiality, and spatial context.
Staged by Christian M. Andersen in collaboration with Norm Architects, the repetitive serial configurations of everyday objects encourage visitors to contemplate the aesthetic, functional, and symbolic dimensions of the mundane.
Join us for the official launch and drinks on Wednesday 12 from 4PM-6PM.
Bredgade 8, 1260 Copenhagen
Together with Origin Made, we’ll also launch a new aesthetically minimal wall vase. Lado, which means ‘side’ in Portuguese, is connected on one of its sides to a wall surface, creatng a presence that gently beckons you to enhance the interiors with a touch of nature.
Enter the Salon
Enter the Salon is a curated joint exhibition showcasing a selection of distinguished brands from around the world. Set in The Conary, an old townhouse in central Copenhagen, and curated by designer Signe Hytte, its a space where design, art and poetry converge, creating a seamless blend of the past with the present.
Brought to life in this special townhouse, the exhibition is designed to provide a haven for quiet reflection, casual conversation, and the exploration of new perspectives.
Here, you can discover the latest additions to the Karimoku Case collections, which was recently launched during Salone Del Mobile in Milan as well as the new N-TL01 table lamp, designed by Norm Architects for Ambientec. Born out of a collaboration between several renowned Japanese manufacturers, Ambientec has drawn on the deep knowledge and extensive expertise of Kojima Shoten, a century-old Kyoto-based lantern maker, and Karimoku Furniture, Japan’s leading wooden furniture manufacturer.
Furthermore, the new ceramic collection No.16 by Norm Architects and Ancher will be on display and the whole setting will be immersed in a delicate room scent by @aroma created in collaboration with Karimoku Case, recalling a sensation of the natural elements of wood, stone and soil as an ode to the Japanese crafts.
Join us for a design talk on Thursday 13 from 3PM-4PM or the cocktail just after.
Dronningens Tværgade 26, 1302 Copenhagen
Designed by Norm Architects in collaboration with Ancher Studio, each piece in the new No. 16 collection embodies a refined simplicity and profound connection to nature.
