"Why do so many designs fail to pass the everyday test? Why is Normal disappearing, and when it's gone how do we replace it? Is there just one question for chairs, for books, or could there be more to it than meets the eye? What makes a good object, and how come some objects get better with time?" - Jasper MorrisonDiscover the beauty in everyday simplicity with “Super Normal,” a curated collection of 204 objects by Jasper Morrison and Naoto Fukasawa.
