Danish Product Design with Mycelium: Cecilie Manz x Reishi™ | MycoWorks

In the studio of Cecilie Manz as she develops a minimalist bag-like basket made with Reishi™ for our upcoming design exhibition, ‘Reishi in the Nordic Light.’ “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 commitment to creating objects that transcend mere aesthetics, Cecilie Manz is an industrial designer with a keen eye for experimentation. Manz lives and works in Copenhagen where she founded her own studio in 1998, designing industrial manufactured products, experimental prototypes, and sculptural pieces exhibited worldwide to international acclaim. ‘Reishi in the Nordic Light’ opens June 18–20 at Møller Witt Gallery. Part of 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen. Video by Direction Bureaux.
