OFFICE OF CRAFTS AND DESIGN

Normal Object Factory founded in 2017 by ceramicist Alexandra Nilasdotter and glass artist Chien-Kuang Liu as a shared exploration of what makes an object meaningful. In our practice, we explore the meeting of cultures through material, form, and craftsmanship, rooted in Swedish and Taiwanese design and craft history.

Based in an old porcelain factory in Gustavsberg outside Stockholm (Sweden), we are surrounded by a history of production that informs our thinking. We borrow the logic of repetition and optimisation from mass production, yet every piece remains shaped by our hands. This tension between the singular and the serial defines our work. Each object carries subtle variations that reflect the body and gesture of its maker, distinguishing it from anonymous industrial output while still allowing for structured, repeatable processes.​

COLORS & MEASUREMENT
Capturing the true color can sometimes be challenging, but we've made every effort to accurately represent both the color and size of each item in our photos. As each piece is handmade, please note that slight variations may occur, making each one unique.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Our glassware is dishwasher-safe at temperatures up to 50°C. We recommend using a gentle dishwasher cycle and ensuring that the glasses are securely positioned and do not touch other items during washing. 
Do not expose the glasses to boiling water, excessive heat or sudden temperature changes, as these may cause damage. Glass expands when heated, therefore, do not stack glasses while they are still warm after washing, as they may become stuck together and break when separated. Fragile items with tall stems and glassware with varying glass thicknesses should be washed by hand.
We recommend hand-washing BOX, OKTAGON and all ceramic products.
WORK SHIRT machine wash at a maximum of 30°C. Hang to dry.
