Brass & Copper Tapware

Not long ago we posted about the metal finish trend happening in the bathroom industry.

We've had a great response to this trend and are specifying more and more of our tapware in finishes other than polished chrome.

So we thought it would be fitting to share some more inspiring pics of this metal-fever!

'NORM.ARCHITECTS was founded in 2008 and represents the vision of Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Rønn. Situated in the heart of Copenhagen, NORM works with residential architecture, commercial interiors, industrial design, photography, graphics and art direction.

Both Jonas and Kasper are trained architects, but even though they share the same taste in aesthetics, their different approach to design and architecture is what makes NORM stand out.

In spirit with the tradition for Scandinavian simplicity NORM strives to cut to the bone in their designs. To find the simplest shape for a given task without forgetting the beauty of the shape and the details, in order to reach a point where there is nothing to add and nothing to take away that can make the product better. Like true Scandinavians they pride themselves in their culture and history, and hope and aspire to create new norms for Nordic design.'

NORM's aesthetic translates beautifully in their bathroom design. The rooms are chic and sophisticated, a perfect example of how to do minimal bathrooms well.

NORM have also designed a myriad of products for well known brands including stools, tables, kitchenware and lighting. We are very excited to announce that we will be stocking their bathroom accessories very soon, so watch this space!

Describe your design aesthetic in 5 words…

Unique, detailed, eclectic, textures, functional

Which bathroom brand are you most likely to specify for your clients?

Boyd Alternatives, Brodware, Marblo Mojo, Philippe Starck

A huge passion for design, a keen eye, a love for textiles and all things beautiful. A desire to make peoples homes and workplaces a special, functional and aesthetic place to be in, timeless and comfortable and a place they can be proud of

Who are some international designers/architects that you admire?

Axel Vervoordt, Christian Liaigre, Kit Kemp, Piet Boon, Berni De La Cuona

If you could design anyone’s bathroom (past or present), whose would it be? And what would you do with it?

Mariano Fortuny (1871-1949) a very avant-garde designer of fabrics as well as being a painter, engraver, sculptor, photographer, set designer, lamp designer and more.

I could use his fabulous fabrics, silk or cotton, to upholster and line the walls. A Fortuny chandelier, Venetian mirrors, high ceilings and large windows with views of the Rialto bridge in Venice. It would be sumptuous and luxurious and a very special place to bathe in. I may even just design it for me...

What is your favourite bathroom product? Why?

I love Boyd Alternatives because the designs are so organic and have such presence, they really do make a statement in a bathroom.

We would like to thank Marylou for sharing her beautiful work and design insight with us.
