Time for an au revoir to Scandinavian stereotypes? Danish Crafts’ new collection of craft & design will premiere at the lifestyle fair Maison&Objet in Paris later this summer and must hope to answer that question. Under the title ExtraOrdinaryCraft, this thirteenth collection of works from Denmark’s craftspeople and designers’ features items such as a condom dispenser, rocking sheep, bicycle and slightly more predictable categories like glassware and ceramics.
