Designers

For Patrick Norguet, design is above all a matter of happy encounters. What excites him most is the exchange with manufacturers, the discovery of their know-how; the impulse of a creative intention refined by technical constraints, economic stakes and the expectations of a user whom he hopes to win over in a discreet but lasting way.

Norm Architects was founded in 2008. Located in the heart of Copenhagen, Norm works in residential architecture, retail interiors, industrial design, photography, graphic design and art direction. Norm's name indicates the extent to which they are inspired by the traditions and standards that have evolved over the centuries within the fields of architecture and aesthetics. It is about finding the simplest form for a given function without forgetting the beauty of form and detail, in order to reach a point where there is nothing to add and nothing to take away to improve the product. Like the native Scandinavians, they take pride in their culture and history, and hope and aspire to create new standards for Nordic design.

Design requires no explanation. Its intention must be revealed through the simplest and most modest ways of interpreting and influencing the daily rituals of our lives. Accordingly, Soda represents the purity and clarity of this idea.

Coming from different professions such as carpentry and goldsmithing, the common interest that led them to work together was the adoption of challenging design projects. With teaching experience at Kingston/New Design University St. Pölten (2003-09), Design College St. Pölten (since 2016) and work experience at Sottsass Associati and Paolo Rizzato in Milan, Radi Designers/Paris, Philips Design Vienna/Singapore, Sagem and Bene Office Furniture, Soda Designers are now based in Vienna and engaged in a variety of projects spanning furniture design, consumer electronics, interior design and home accessories.
