How’s that for a eye-catching headline? The picture is taken by the Italian designer Odoardo Fioravanti (designed the Fusion series for us). Apparently his cat liked our old logo so much that it decided to eat it!

The winner of the “Be creative and win” – 2009 is the fantastic picture “Cold” by Sena C.
The sick Familia cup made us want to curl up under our Plaid with a cup of hot Choclate, especially these days when Copenhagen is ice cold and covered in snow. This picture encourages for some “local warming” at home.
There can only be one ! But we fell in love with this picture of a dog digging in the Spine Rug, so we made up a new price “The Creative Ninja ‘Award” that goes to ; Hannah L for “Hiding”

Our two CEO´s at Normann Copenhagen (Jan & Poul) are huge Red Bull fans and start every morning with a shot of Red Bull… its true! They were both pretty happy the other day when the drink finally became legal to sell in Denmark.
