The popular Bath series has grown
and in this year’s collection...
You’ll find ladders, holders and wipers.
The designers behind are Norm: Jonas
Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Rønn. Their
love of minimalism and functionality
shines through clearly in the Bath series,
as they create products that meet real-life
needs, while still having a modern and
aesthetic look.

Bath Ladder, an informal and flexible
piece of furniture made for storing towels
and accessories in the bathroom - clothes
in the bedroom - or scarves and coats in
the hallway. It’s easy to move around the
house and the leather strap at the top
(meant to fix the ladder to the wall) almost
makes it look like an oversized suitcase,
that you can lift and take everywhere.
Towel Bar and Toilet Roll Holder are
designed in the same simple and
recognizable style. They are rounded and
soft in expression, while still being visually
strong, iconic and masculine. The illusion
of the floating band of the wall provides
a strong graphic expression, without
being too dominating, and the matte
surface also provides a sensual tactility to
the products.
As our last newcomer this year, we
have: Wiper.
Kasper Rønn from Norm Architects
explains: “With Wiper we really focused on
finding the point where there was nothing
more we could possibly add or subtract,
to make it a better product. It was a bit
of a test to see just how simple it could
be made”. The result is a wiper, easy to
grip and use, and easily maintained as it’s
fully covered in silicone and without any
joints. The cord in the top allows you to
hang it in the shower or on a little hook, to
add a clean graphical expression on your
bathroom wall.
Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen: “As a designer it’s
always tempting to think outside the box
and try to work your designs into other
areas of people’s lives, without losing the
existing design aesthetic. With this year’s
new additions to the Bath series we’ve
slowly expanded into the hallway and
the bedroom.
