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.

Established in 2017, Fischersund is a family–run art collective and niche perfumery based in Reykjavik, Iceland. Founded by four siblings—Inga, Jónsi, Sigurrós, and Lilja—the brand serves as a creative platform using scent, visual arts and music. Sensorial design and storytelling are used to create immersive experiences including unique perfumes, scented concerts and exhibitions. Music is used to tell the story of scent. Like perfume is composed of olfactory notes, the sounds of Fischersund are carefully crafted to create an atmosphere that transports the listener to Iceland. Together, Jónsi (of Sigur Rós), Sindri and Kjartan have composed 30 pieces of music that reflect the ethereal fragrances and bring the brand to life through sound.
