The Normann Copenhagen Hyg collection has grown into a wide range of different pieces, each one sharing the same hearty organic curves and focus on exceptional comfort. The swivel chair adds a further practical element, allowing you to adjust your position to best suit your needs.
Putting the concepts of security, warmth and comfort at the heart of the design, Simon Legald has created a template that can now extend from your home office, into your dining and living spaces. Each piece has a similar visual language, tying your home together and creating a coherent environment.
Simon Legald studies design at the The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and will graduate in the Summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products.
“Honesty is what makes a product understandable, and is what describes functionality of the products. If you understand the product, it doesn’t need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological- and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects, and makes them trustworthy. In my designs I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression.”
