We made an Online Site – Offline!

To celebrate our new site, we decided to turn the corridor in our Flagship Store in Copenhagen into an installation exhibition. Starting tonight at 7 pm – and the four following weeks – we  have taken our  new online universe and put it into an offline context – sounds confusing?  Take a look at the pictures below – or join the launch reception tonight.

We have turned the facade of our Flagship Store into the frontpage of our  new site.

Real social networking – sit and share the event with old  or new friends.

We have made a video – describing the shopping experience on www.normann-copenhagen.com

Sign up for our newsletter offline! – or online.

You are invited!

For a while we have been working on our new site which combines brandsite, web shop and social content in one. You might have been following the process on www.wedosocialbusiness.com.

We want to celebrate it is online! We are throwing a big launch reception on Friday from 7pm to 10pm in our Flagship Store – and you are invited!
Join the facebook event here.

If you can’t wait until Friday or if you are not able to make it to Copenhagen – take a look at the new site now www.normann-copenhagen.com

Interior Decorating 2.0

If you have walked by our Flagship Store in Copenhagen after opening hours, you might have noticed that the display window is different every day.  We like to change, re-decorate and move our products around in new formations, which is why we thought that we would like to change the lamps in the ceiling – something thats easier said than done when the distance between the floor and ceiling is a bit more than 13 m.

Here Allan and Peter from the store is taking down the Hang lamps and putting up 25 Bau lamps.

Here the Flagship Store before:

And after:

At the moment on our Facebook page we have asked which version of  the Bau Lamp you prefer – Multi or Nature?  See the result and give your vote here
The Bau Lamp is designed by Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt and is a sculptural self assembly lamp.

We Believe In…..

When we choose new colours for our products or when we decide what we want to purchase for our Flagship Store ( furniture, design and fashion) we make storyboards. It is a great and simple tool for us. We want to share some of our key words and how Spring 2012 looks like in the Normann Copenhagen world.

Overall you will find lots of colour – a mix of both strong and more delicate colours.

  • Metal colours such as gold, silver and copper.

Acne Pop-up-Shop in Normann

The new Acne’s collection Spring-Summer 2012 is a fantastic combination of bright colors that perfectly match Normann Copenhagen designs. Inspired by a trip to North Africa and the Sahara, the creative directive Jonny Johansson has created a terrific collection that easily captivates your senses.

Most Innovative Store!

Normann Copenhagen has been awarded the Denmark global innovation award (gia) for ‘most innovative store’ for our 1,700 m2 Flagship Store at Østerbro in Copenhagen. Gia is an international award presented to the most innovative and exciting store in the field of interior design and décor in Denmark.


The award is then presented on an international scale, with Denmark competing against the rest of the world at The International Home + Housewares Show in Chicago in March 2012. We won in the ‘small independent retailers’ category.

“We are delighted and proud to receive the Denmark gia, and we are excited about the international prize-giving event in 2012. We want Normann Copenhagen to be an ongoing source of inspiration for our visitors 24/7. As an example, we design a new window display every evening,” explains Peter Elmegaard, Retail Director and co-owner.

Unique Pieces

With roots in Nordic traditions Danish Fashion company HANSEN has designed a series of unique pieces which are available in our Flagship Store. The pieces are hand-made and designed by Åse Helena Hansen.


The HANSEN jacket is made with embroidery on “klede” which is high quality fabric. The designer has made her own interpretations with the embroidery of the “Bunad” – the Norwegian national costume.

Åse Helena Hansen explains: ““Klede” is made of rough and sturdy wool which is felted hard to obtain unique strength and durability. Even though the material is study the preparations method gives the fabric a smooth and fine surface. “Klede” for men is particular strong and qualities like this is made to last a lifetime. “

The pants are made in “Worsted Tweed” found on the shelves of Hvidberg – one of oldest tailoring companies inDenmark. HANSEN has made only 10 pairs of pants.

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.

Enjoy
