Minimalism can be fun!

car1

Sometimes it’s the simplest things that are the most fun. Like the time I gave my son a huge and expensive action-man (Polar edition) set. It turned out that setting all the small plastic parts free, was not a kids job. While I was busy with scissors my son had taken the carton box and was turning it into a really cool galactic interplanetary spaceship. So last week when this little metal car arrived at my desk it reminded me that things don’t have to be big and loud to be fun. The metal car is handmade by Mr. Jesco von Puttkamer from Switzerland. Watch the video below and see how much fun a piece of metal can be.

p.s. the car can be yours. Just write your name in the comments field (above) and I will draw a winner on Monday. And yes it comes in its own perfect interplanetary spaceship box.

    Hi-

    Is it too late to get that car! Puttkamer’s stuff is sooo cool! I discovered them a few years ago and whenever I give them as gifts- the recipient is always delighted! :-)

We love great design

Normann Copenhagen is a way of living - a mindset. We like to think of it as putting on a pair of glasses and seeing the world in a different way. We love to challenge the conventional design rules.

On this blog we write about our design, the designers, and interesting things we spot around our hometown - Copenhagen.
