Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Ronn, the two Danes behind Norm Architects, work in a spirit of Scandinavian restraint, constantly striving to find the simplest solution without compromising aesthetic appeal. The goal is to reach the point in their designs where nothing further could be done to improve a product. Produced by Menu, the Norm Floor mirror sums up this ethic perfectly. This Menu piece encapsulates simple design, elegant lines and fine details. The NORM FLOOR mirror was designed to lean against the wall or to be hung anywhere in the house.
The Norm Architects studio, founded by Kasper Rønn von Lotzbeck and Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen in 2008, specialises in residential architecture, industrial design, photography and art direction. The essence of Norm Architects' work lies in the balance between richness and restraint, order and complexity, with a focus on quality, detail and sustainability. Located in Copenhagen, the traditions of Scandinavian design are respected, with an emphasis on traditional craftsmanship. The principles of timeless aesthetics and refinement through natural materials are also present in each of the group's creations. Their collection of purist, timeless objects includes the glass Kettle teapot and the Harbour armchair. This multidisciplinary studio is continuing its quest for the essential and minimalism by collaborating with Menu to create new iconic pieces. The two founders of Norm Architects share a passion for finding the exact point where nothing can be added or removed to improve the object. Together, they aspire to set new standards in Nordic design.

AUDO COPENHAGEN
Audo Copenhagen was founded in Fredensborg in 1979 by Simon Hansen. In the early days, the brand only sold accessories and tableware. Stainless steel was the main material used for tableware. However, in 1988 Audo Copenhagen overhauled its production and expanded its product range. Innovative products were developed and product design was modernised in terms of quality, design and development. Audo Copenhagen is rooted to Scandinavian traditions and its accessories have an undeniably Nordic charm. Audo Copenhagen Menu's philosophy is simple: make the world better, less complicated, and a little more pleasant to look at. Audo Copenhagen Menu sells intelligent solutions with functional details.
