“Our new Reprise Chair is a great example of our
collaboration process with @lercolanidesign. To create this piece, we combined Ercol’s traditional woodturning and steam bending techniques with a classic Danish design from the ‘50s. The chair’s legs are held in place with a singular, steam-bent piece of wood, paying homage to an Ercol tradition stretching back to 1944. The end result is a graceful, well-constructed chair with spindles for the legs and backrest." – Frederik Werner, designer at Norm Architects.

In progress: Our latest project on the rocky coast of Sweden, the Archipelago House, has been built into the cliff, connecting beautifully to the landscape surrounding it. Harmoniously built and designed to embrace its context, the wooden structure consists of four wooden volumes interlocked and connected by a terraced wooden deck that follows the sloping plot. #normarchitects #softminimalism

Nature and its resources possess narratives and timeless beauty: wood has grown as trees before arriving at the skilful hands of a carpenter, and stone tells a story through its profound geological origins. Natural materials are patient and adaptable, speak of time and of transience. They don’t require much care or maintenance to endure, and are more likely to patinate beautifully than to attain unflattering signs of wear and tear. Living, breathing fibres have character and are flexible and adaptable to varied use and environments. Leather and natural fibres like cotton, linen and wool, also derived from nature, bring warmth and richness to interiors, and possess the aesthetically pleasing feature of gaining beauty with time.

On the Danish Riviera north of Copenhagen, close to the beach as well as lakes and unspoiled forests, lies an old village school house dating back to 1721. The old school consist of two old timbered buildings with thatched roofs, that have now been delicately restored on the outside, with respect for the old traditional building style, but modernized on the inside and united with a minimalist glass connection, inspired by the covered walkways of the near-by Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. #normarchitects #softminimalism
