About Norm Architects

Jonas Pierre-Poulsen of Norm Architects and Sarah Durweiler of Essence offer two distinct perspectives on minimalist design: one as a practitioner who designs human-centered spaces, and the other as a curator who explores the emotional depth of this art. Together, they link design practice and cultural research.
