Founded in Copenhagen in 2008 by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Rønn, Norm Architects is specialised in residential architecture, commercial interiors, industrial design, photography and art direction.
Today, the group regularly collaborates with MENU, helping to drive the evolution of the brand and its product offerings. Norm Architects’ name reflects the group’s emphasis on the importance of drawing inspiration from norms and traditions within architecture and design – particularly the Scandinavian design principles of timeless aesthetics and natural materials, and the modernist values of restraint and refinement.
Guided by these principles, Norm Architects produce design that unites good materials and craftsmanship, while embodying beauty, traditions, history and, most importantly, timeless simplicity, where there is nothing more to add or take away.

Simplicity meets well-conceived design with Menu’s Pedal Bins, as its brushed steel lid opens and closes smoothly, all with a mere tap on the pedal. Meanwhile, the inner shell comes with an intelligently designed bag-lock that is also easily cleaned.
