As its name suggests, the Plank bookcase from Normann Copenhagen is made from full-length pine planks. It offers a simple storage solution with authentic, honest lines. This collection of storage units is crafted from long, solid pine planks that emphasize strength, durability and design quality. Its functional minimalism highlights a calm, unadorned design.
The Plank Bookcase collection is available in three sizes, each serving as a versatile storage solution. From a large bookcase to a long, low shelf that can also be used as a bench, the furniture brings out the beauty and strength of pine. Over time, pine's durable, welcoming aesthetic will develop a beautiful patina that enhances its natural charm. Each shelf is coated with a clear, matt UV lacquer varnish that protects the furniture from the sun's rays and preserves the beauty of the material for years to come.

Simon Legald
Simon Legald graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2012. He has worked on the development of numerous products from small to large scale. Legald's designs are the result of an exchange between craft and industry. In his work, he emphasizes the structure of the product, which becomes intrinsic to the design.
"Honesty is what makes a product intelligible and defines its functionality. If you understand the product, then there's no need for explanations. The very purpose of my designs is to be bought and used. So they have to meet functional needs as well as psychological and aesthetic ones. For me, simplicity is what describes the true identity of objects. In my designs, I try not to add superfluous details. All this gives the products a simple, honest expression."
