Description
Danish design duo HolmbäckNordentoft worked a visual pun into their sleek table lamp. "A cord is a necessary evil," they say. "How could we make it into a virtue?" The answer was to emphasize it with a curved opening at the bottom, punctuated with a brass detail. Otherwise, Shelter is winningly functional, emitting evenly reflected illumination from under its wide curved shade with an inner white finish. The lamp creates a cozy atmosphere in the corner of a living room or serves as a reading light next to an armchair, on a desk or bedside table.

“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.”
