Contribution to the Reishi in the Nordic Light Exhibition during 3daysofdesign in Copenhagen.

“Working with Reishi™ was in a way highlighting what we always do: letting the material speak and sometimes determine which path to choose.”

Celebrated for a distinct and dedicated commitment to creating objects that transcend mere aesthetics, Manz presents Et Ark, a minimalist bag-like basket that seamlessly integrates with solid Oregon pine wood and one single Reishi™ sheet. Both inside and outside of the lightweight material is exposed with its freckles and natural differences. Edges gently touched by colour. Her design is a study in material synergy, scale and proportions, where every detail reflects a balance between form, function, and the storied legacy of Danish design.
