The Bit side table by Normann Copenhagen is part of Simon Legald's beloved Bit collection, known especially for its delightful, versatile stools. Like the stool, the table is also a distinct multi-purpose piece of furniture that acts as a living room's side table or a stand for flowers and green plants. The table is made of recycled plastic, with its monolithic shape enlivened by a dotted surface that stems from the material: during the production process, molten bits of colorful plastic settle in each table in a slightly different way. Therefore, each side table is also unique. The Bit table can be used both indoors and outdoors, as it withstands temperatures from -10°C to +50°C.

Simon Legald (b. 1986) is a Danish designer and the head designer of Normann Copenhagen. Having graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2012, Legald began his long and prolific collaboration with Normann Copenhagen soon after graduating. In Legald’s work, craft traditions meet industrial processes, and his style is marked by a modern simplicity in which function and visual esthetics are kept in careful balance.
One of Legald’s best-known works is the Form chair collection, which was honored with the iF Design Award in 2016.
Simon Legald – clear forms and honest materials
The Danish designer Simon Legald is known for his clear, purposeful design language and his use of genuine, honest materials.
Legald graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2012 and rose quickly to international renown through his collaboration with Normann Copenhagen. Today, he works as the company’s Head of Design.
At the meeting point of craft and industrial production
For Legald, design is not primarily self-expression but a way to solve practical needs in a clear and esthetically pleasing way. His design shows a strong interest in the properties of materials and in how the structure of a product can be part of its visual appearance.
In Legald’s work, the meeting point of craft and industrial manufacture is a central starting point: structural solutions are not hidden away but brought in as part of the product’s appearance.
Furniture and objects for modern everyday life
Legald has designed everything from small everyday objects to extensive furniture collections, but regardless of scale, the same idea of clarity and balance recurs throughout his work.
Among his best-known works, the Form chair series was honored in 2016 with the iF Design Award and a Special Mention in the German Design Award competition.
