Cecilie Manz

With a discrete sense of playfulness,

Cecilie Manz’s work demonstrates that

functional details capture the aesthetic essence

of an object in a subtle way. Considered one

of the leading Danish furniture designers of

her generation, all her projects have a strong,

functional reason for revolving around

simplicity, in her mission to create a pure,

aesthetic object.

that contributes to her carefully considered,

sculptural designs that are a pleasure to

both use and behold.

materials and production technology.

Based on their belief that good design never

loses its ability to be interesting, even when

reduced to its simplest form.
