This is not a Washing-up bowl! You may think it is the Ole Jensen’s rubber bowl – but its not! Sounds strange?

Ole Jensen may have designed the rubber bowl for washing up, but it’s now being used for many different things… see examples after the click below.
This thursday at the Normann Copenhagen Flagship store it’s Time to design, or rather it’s time to see how Wai & Lanzavecchia design. In august the design-duo won the Time to design – new talent award with their winning project “SPAZIALE SERIES: New expressions of skin and structure”.

Graffiti is everyday viewing in cities like Copenhagen. But all of a sudden we have spotted a new kind of political Graffiti. American President Barack Obama under a bridge highway just outside Copenhagen. Is he running for president of Denmark? Is he trying to sell something or has his marketing people just gone a bit too far…literally. Very strange. It is the style of the British artist Banksy, but then again the artwork is not integrated with the surroundings like he would do. Please enlighten us if you know the story.
Together with Tiger Beer we invite you to the Tiger Translate – East connectin’ to West – reception in our Flagship store this friday 5-7 pm. More info on facebook.
