Spec Sheet

Description

Designed by Danish studio Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen, Mat’s generously comfortable armchair easily translates as bar and counter seating. The shell seat is innovatively crafted using hemp and eelgrass, a type of seaweed. Recyclable for its life span, the material also has a natural beauty and tactility; the chair’s slim powder-coated legs prove an apt counterpart.

“When Jan and I look at new designs for Normann Copenhagen, we take a very intuitive approach to the products,” according to cofounder Poul Madsen. “A picture can say much more than words and if we are both struck by what we see, we are interested.” Jan Andersen and Poul Madsen teamed up to create the Normann Copenhagen with a vision to shake up the contemporary design field. Now known the world over, they collaborate with new names and established talents from their native Denmark as well as internationally.

The company puts a premium on challenging conventional thinking in collections of tabletop products, lighting and furniture—with bold design strokes, innovative materials and a deft enjoyment of color. “We like products that have an original idea and a simple design, although we do not tie ourselves to a particular line,” Poul adds. “For us, the important thing is that the projects we get involved in bring something new into the world of design.”
