“This balance between richness and restraint affords the user a unique and engaging shopping experience, relying on a considered quality of materiality and space.” Sofie Thorning, Senior Architect and Associate Partner at Norm. Reconceptualization of the Menswear department in Alsterhaus, Hamburg, part of the KaDeWe Group. #normarchitects #softminimalism #alsterhaus

Designed in collaboration with @menuspace, Co Chair is now available with a fully upholstered seat and back. Distinguished by its wide veneer back, the proportions of the chair allow freedom of movement while providing maximum comfort. The upholstering is available for both the dining- and lounge versions of the Co Chair. #normarchitects #menuspace #softminimalism

The Vaults represents the simplicity and beauty of the architectural detail as individual archetypes. The model sized Vaults are tactile and tangible pieces of architecture designed for ALIUM. They have precise carvings that interact with the veins and structure of the natural stone. Vaults are made in two different materials, classical Roman Travertine and Moleanos Limestone from Portugal. Each piece has a personal identity that can easily stand alone as an individual art piece.

DIALOGUE. A series of limited edition prints by our founder, Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen. With this unique print series, Jonas shares his passion for phenomenology — the philosophical study of human experience. His images address nature’s imperfection as an expression of old and new, of purity and impermanence. It is guided by its inherent sense of harmony in a celebration of it.

During this year’s 3 Days of Design, under the theme “Tomorrow’s House”, The Audo embraces change with a full interior design refresh completed in collaboration with Norm Architects, and casts its gaze forward to ask: “what does tomorrow’s home look like?” Developed with our founding partner Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen, the new interior design plan rethinks the atmosphere, usage and connectivity of The Audo’s commons, concept store, restaurant and courtyard spaces. Photography by @vaernis_studio Armin Tehrani, Mario Depicolzuane and Lasse Fløde. @the_audo #normarchitects #softminimalism #theaudo

The Norm Book Box “N-BB01” is a collection of bespoke storage objects, designed by Norm Architects and collaboratively produced by August Sandgren and Karimoku Case Study. The storage boxes have been designed as an aesthetic solution to accommodate the clutter of everyday life. Made using carefully selected wood from the Karimoku furniture production in Japan, the Book Box series supports a sustainable design approach. @augustsandgrendk @karimokucasestudy @sorensenleather #normarchitects #softminimalism #augustsandgren #karimokucasestudy

Our founding director Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen has created a series of photographic prints for Copenhagen-based poster company, the Paper Collective. Soft yet highly contrasting, Jonas has captured movements in time, presenting a humanistic approach to subject and form, with transparent textures and bold circular forms set against warm and tactile backdrops. The collection launches this week during 3daysofdesign. See collection online at www.papercollective.com @papercollective @jonasbjerrepoulsen #normarchitects #softminimalism #jonasbjerrepoulsen

The fact that humans and nature are inseparable makes it all the more vital to have nature be part of our indoor environments – through living surfaces, and calming nuances that makes us feel at ease. Interior design for a private sommerhouse in Sweden. #softminimalism #normarchitects

INTRODUCING ALSTERHAUS. We've completed a reconceptualization of the Menswear department in Alsterhaus, Hamburg, part of the KaDeWe Group. Adopting a tectonic approach to space, the space is made up of distinct zones, each with an expression and material palette of their own. Various bespoke elements and furniture pieces make up key elements that substantiate sentiments of the different sections within the store area. #normarchitects #softminimalism #alsterhaus

Large sliding doors open up key spaces to the outdoor areas of exclusive villa resort K House in the Southern province of Sri Lanka. Shutters are made of wood to avoid glazed openings. Project completed in 2018 in collaboration with AIM Architecture. #normarchitects #aimarchitecture #softminimalism

Designed to fill any space with a cosy, ambient light, the lantern-like Hashira lamp takes its name from the Japanese word for column or pillar, with a slender, textile silhouette that exposes its graphic inside structure. Designed for @menuspace. #normarchitects #menuspace #softminimalism

The KCS dining chair was born out of the exploration around Karimoku’s many factories, workshopping on sight with the craftsmen. Simple in its design and composition, but with a warm and welcoming feel to it, the chair is a hybrid between the Japanese and Scandinavian design aesthetics.

PH House is a classic family residence outside Copenhagen, featuring high panels, parquet flooring and paned windows, completed two years ago. The house is said to be the former home of Danish architect, designer and cultural critic, Poul Henningsen. #normarchitects #softminimalism

The Summit Lounge Chair, designed for @ariake_collection, boasts a light and transparent silhouette with wide armrests and high backrest for a natural flow throughout the chair. Inspired by the Scandinavian cabinetmaker's design tradition, the chair beautifully displays all its elements and makes for a relaxing furniture piece to retreat to. #normarchitects #ariake #softminimalism

From the archives: Completed in 2015, the Fredensborg House is built on five small plateaus connected by steps, reflecting the shape of its surrounding terrain. Inspiration for the house aesthetic was derived from the labyrinthine mountain village architecture, the architecture of Chinese temples, and in the works of modernist Danish architect, Jørn Utzon. #normarchitects #softminimalism
