Copenhagen based Norm Architects have designed this driftwood inspired ‘Raft’ table and stool range recently for Danish firm & tradition.
“Lacquered steel with legs of sandblasted solid oak or black stained ash. Top in sandblasted solid oak, white laminate or black ash laminate. The
Raft Table and Raft stools blend the roughness of natural materials, aging with beauty, with the industrial efficiency of metal structures. With a contemporary Scandinavian approach to the drift wood inspiration, the table and stools are unique pieces of furniture that combine simplistic purity and a discreetly sensuous look. The sandblasted surface of the table top adds a patinated feel, while the triple legs of round wood has the playful appearance of a living creature in motion. And the rounded edges beneath the tabletop or seat makes for a soft and pleasant feel when the hand touches the table”.

A series of dining tables uses the same leg design in layered wood veneer.
The focus in the design was to create a table with a refined connection between legs and top.
Similar to a tree branch or arms that victoriously holds a trophy over head, the legs split before attaching the top surface creating a strong but elegant look for this table that comes in various sizes and colours.

He designed “Duales“, a range of coffee tables and tables playing with linen fibre’s implicit duality : a warm natural material refering to more technological materials by the way it is shaped.These furniture were “eco-created” from their making to the way they are shiped and stocked : the product being built without any scew or glue, it can fit in a flat pack.

XI Bookshelf designed to be very simple to assemble, without the use of any screws or fixtures. Its assembly becomes very simple due to the very carefully placed fittings that allow for the parts to lock together, like a wooden puzzle.
The carving of the assembly instructions directly on the boards is what makes this construction so simple. It shows the most technical part of the object, and is present throughout the shelf’s use, reminding you of that one event. It also allows for taking apart and rebuilding it anytime, since the instructions wont get lost.
Despite it’s dynamic look, this shelf is very sturdy, because of it’s X structure and the suspended vertical support, that holds the loose ends of the horizontal parts.
This shelf was designed to be produced by CNC milling. This makes it very simple and fast to produce.
