Every Thing Matters: In the Studio with Cecilie Manz

Cecilie Manz's work can appear effortless and proportionate, reflecting her reluctance to make things more complicated than they need to be. Instead, she focuses on finding the balance between an object feeling resolved and the construction being driven by logic. Her process often begins with reduction: removing what is unnecessary until only what is essential remains.

This approach has allowed the Post Lounge Chair to become unusually light, not only in its construction but also visually. Its pared-back frame gave the designer the opportunity to "turn up the colour" of the upholstered seat, creating a considered contrast between structure and softness.

Taking the Post collection as our starting point, we visited Cecilie Manz's studio to discover what inspires her, how she approaches her work, and where she finds meaning in the everyday.

The Start of a Danish Design Collaboration

The Post Collection, which includes the Post Table and Post Chair, takes its name from Fredericia’s showroom in Copenhagen, located in a former post office building, a context that quietly underpins its identity.

With the introduction of the Post Lounge Chair we expand the Post Collection adding a more relaxed typology. As a long-term collaborator, Manz continues to refine rather than redefine, extending her design language of clarity and restraint into an additional mode of sitting.

The Post Lounge Chair Manz extends the collection into lounge and living settings while maintaining its structural clarity of form. Scale, proportion, and comfort have been carefully adjusted to support a more relaxed posture, while retaining the same sense of presence characteristic of the collection.
