Working with residential architecture, commercial interiors, industrial design, photography, graphics and art direction, there’s little the multi-talented team at Norm Architects can’t turn its hand to. Set up in Copenhagen in 2008 by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Rønn von Lotzbeck, Norm takes its name from ‘the importance of drawing inspiration from traditions and norms that have been refined for many centuries within the field of architecture and aesthetics’. The firm follows the tradition of Scandinavian simplicity, seeing minimalism as a form of luxury. At the moment, they are excited about the new office and showroom they are developing for Ouur Media in Copenhagen. Residential offerings include the Reydon Grove Farm house in Suffolk.
