Not sure if we’ll regret the buy, but at least it didn’t cost an arm and a leg…
From the Normann Copenhagen site:
Sculptural Light
A modern self-assembly lamp, the Norm 03 is designed with organic principles in mind. This sculptural light comes in 39 pieces that anyone can assemble without the use of any tools or glue. Ideal for beginners, the Norm 03 assembles without the use of any tools or glue. Pour yourself a nice glass of wine, put your favorite music on and soon you will be the proud owner of your very own handmade Norm 03 lamp – made by you.
Britt Kornum explains
The Norm 03 lamp shade originally took shape in my hands and hung above my own dining table with its organic and very alive-looking form. When the lamp is turned on it casts a shadow on the ceiling that reinforces the ‘alive’ impression.Two longfoil strips fold in and out of each other in a snake-like pattern, creating, in their own way, order from chaos.

Our EM Renovation Experience 
PC Show is on. Got your homeplugs yet?
@zjz: Thanks for remembering! Decided not to get the homeplugs. We’ll wire up the house with Cat 6 cables. 🙂
Dun mention it 🙂 Hope some of my old man’s advice has been useful .
@zjz: You are old? I’m not young anyway, so don’t say that.
I’m new to all this reno stuff, so any advice is much appreciated. 🙂
Hi!
Saw the Norm 03 lamp on your blog and fell in love with it. May I know where did you get this lamp and what is the size? Thanks so much! 🙂
Hi Pauline, I got my Norm 03 from LifeStorey located at Great World City shopping centre. Don’t think LifeStorey carries the lamp any more but no harm calling to ask? I did see the display pieces there a few days ago if they are selling that.
If not you can consider buying directly from the Normann or Scandi design websites – worldwide shipping is relatively ok. Think works out to almost the same price as what I got the lamp for:

Mine is a small: Width 53 cm x Height 32 cm
Thanks for the advice! 🙂
