When you want to challenge yourself you should do it properly.
Normann Copenhagen has produced two ordinary products for everyday use in collaboration with Karim Rashid.
The piggy bank Time is Money and the hanger Orgo are Karim Rashid's interpretation of objects that deserve more attention in our everyday life.
"I think that the products I designed for Norman Copenhagen are odd banal products that don't get the attention they deserve.
It is always great to work on objects like piggy banks and hangers.
These ubiquitous objects need perpetual new ideas, new personalities, new character, to be more animated but in an abstract way, not as kitsch or literal redesign."
Karim Rashid has provided new identities for the two everyday products.
In his universe the hanger Orgo and the piggy bank Time is Money are independent objects with their own style.
Once again a style that breaks with the conventions in the universe of Normann Copenhagen.
Orgo is the plastic hanger that is decorative in it self and can bear the light of day.
Orgo is a new and colourful way to undress that brings life and pleasure to the wardrobe.
Its organic shape is inviting, dynamic and functional and Orgo dresses your wardrobe up for display.
