MANU MATTERS
Cover image missing

MANU builds object-to-human relationships. Their objects are all ‘characters’ to live alongside — not bought and sold, but adopted. Working across waste streams, the material becomes both the starting point and the guide, allowing its limitations to shape the design of each object. They craft objects from PET bottles, lemon peels, or sand — depending on what’s available around them. MANU believes this philosophy can help us rediscover the value of finite raw materials, encouraging more respect and care for the objects we live with.

Step inside the Future of Craft in MANU's Micro Factory and meet the latest addition to the MANU family.

Fucina Frammenti is a sustainable brand with an online shop focused on contemporary designs that prioritise material analysis and production processes. The brand aims to find new uses for Noble Waste—processed or semi–finished results—derived from the production cycles of other companies. This waste is repurposed through thoughtful design, creating new products with minimal energy expenditure while adhering to principles of disassemblability and monomateriality. This formula, called Noble Waste Mix, embodies a circular production–consumption–reuse model. Fucina Frammenti continually refines its practices through research, experimentation, and exploration of new materials, resulting in a constantly evolving product catalog.

Guided by the philosophy “Flatness is the Point”, Flat Point creates interior pieces that integrate seamlessly with their surroundings. This harmony goes beyond simplicity, becoming a defining point that elevates spatial aesthetics through a refined, minimalist approach. Rather than pursuing variety for its own sake, Flat Point focuses on depth—exploring materials and methods of making with care and precision. Through a balance of aesthetic sensitivity and engineering expertise, the brand shapes its own interpretation of the flat point: discovering quiet, natural moments within restrained beauty.
