Rice paper bubbles and plates from outer space – introducing Normann Copenhagen’s new arrivals
The shape of the Puff Bulb lampshade is reminiscent of a light bulb. The Puff series includes four different rice paper shades as well as a table and floor lamp.
Bright and bubbly
Rice paper shades continue to be super popular among design fans. Normann Copenhagen’s new Puff lighting collection is designed by German-born Saskia Hübner, who has previously worked very closely with Normann Copenhagen: she worked in the brand’s own design team for four years before focusing on her own design studio.
Although most rice paper lamps are round, the Puff lamps come in a multitude of whimsical shapes – one looks like a peanut, while another looks like a light bulb.

Simon Legald sought inspiration for the Rib sideboard from the architecture of Nordic summer cottages and vacation homes.
Summer house minimalism
The leisurely atmosphere of a summer’s day, but translated into minimalist furniture? Sounds dreamy! The Rib sideboard is decorated with vertical slats that make its doors look a bit like the paneled walls of Nordic summer houses – and that’s exactly where designer Simon Legald sought for inspiration when creating the design. To further emphasize the relaxed feeling of a vacation home, Legald even left out handles that would break the visual symmetry. Instead, the doors open with a gentle push.

The minimalistic Pose mirror stands on a round marble plinth, which makes it balanced both literally and visually.
Strike a pose
Also designed by Simon Legald is the geometric Pose mirror that comprises solely three elements: two circles that form the mirror’s marble base and the reflective part itself as well as a metal tube holding it all together. The Flip mirror is a firm fan favorite from Normann Copenhagen, but perhaps the Pose mirror will offer a nice alternative to those who prefer an even more stringent design language.

The Cosmic glass plates add a galactic touch to the everyday breakfast table as well as special occasions.
A sprinkling of stardust
The Cosmic plates’ frosted glass surface is adorned with a swirl that makes one think of distant galaxies beyond our solar system. The plates are hand-blown, so each swirl is unique – just like each galaxy has its own unique collection of stars. All we can say is: Beam us up, Scotty!

The bright green Klip lamp has a metal shade that can be rotated 360 degrees to help you direct the light exactly where you need it.
Spot of color
If you’ve been looking for a simple yet colorful wall lamp, look no further! The bright green Klip wall lamp has a stripped-down design infused with just the right amount of playfulness to add a fun touch to your bedroom or perhaps for lighting up the kitchen counter. Klip is yet another creation by one of Normann Copenhagen’s right-hand designers, Simon Legald.
