A closer look at the visual identity of @house_manus

Hands, materials, and artisanal processes shape the visual language. The photography by @gerhardt_kellermann captures the aesthetic of craftsmanship in a way that feels authentic, precise, and timeless. Together with the typography, it creates a visual identity that reflects the values of House of Manus.

oora - branding

Together with @house_manus and @udreamitwebuildit, we gave oora a new foundation. Refining its visual language from the ground up.
From type and color to imagery and application, everything is designed to work as one, both across digital and physical space.🏠

Last year, we had the pleasure to work on the complete rebranding and repositioning of Studio Soius. 🤍
Together with @house_manus, we restructured and expanded the website, and we designed a new corporate identity highlighting @studiosoius’ subtle mix of quiet expertise and bold precision.

Here are some of the voices—designers, architects, hoteliers, and cultural thinkers—who brought our Designed to Stay series at @alcova.milano to life during Milan Design Week.

Looking back on Alcova Talks, we revisit the questions that shaped the series—exploring how hospitality can create spaces that resonate emotionally and culturally over time, through atmosphere, memory, and meaning as much as through physical design.

Here, we spoke with @funwindow, @veronylon from @ananas____ananas, @oliverjahn from @house_manus, @simon_robert_l from @der_greif and @josephdeslercosta.

Die Erfahrung des Echten.

Was ist eigentlich echt?

Im Rahmen unserer Eventreihe durften wir einen Abend gestalten, der genau dieser Frage nachging – entlang von drei Leitmotiven: Materialität, Beziehung und Haltung.

Gemeinsam mit Philipp Hoflehner, Markus Riedel und Oliver Jahn entstand ein Gespräch über das Handgemachte, das Nicht-Skalierbare und die bewusste Entscheidung für Qualität – auch dort, wo sie mehr Zeit und Sorgfalt verlangt.

Das Echte zeigt sich nicht in Lautstärke oder Inszenierung, sondern in Haltung, Präzision und dem Weg dorthin.

Was kann kein Algorithmus ersetzen?
Wann wird aus einer Dienstleistung eine echte Erfahrung?
Und was macht Persönlichkeit und Herkunft heute unkopierbar?

Ein Abend voller Substanz, Austausch und Perspektiven.

Danke an alle, die diesen besonderen Raum mitgestaltet haben. Und an Kussmann Sacher, Architectural Communication für Konzeption & Gestaltung.

Das Echte ist kein Effekt.
Es ist eine Haltung.

The Experience of the Real
What does real actually mean?

As part of our event series, we hosted an evening dedicated to this very question – shaped by three guiding themes: materiality, relationship, and attitude.

Together with Philipp Hoflehner, Markus Riedel, and Oliver Jahn, the conversation explored craftsmanship, the non-scalable, and the conscious choice to pursue quality – even where it demands more time and care.

The real is not defined by volume or staging, but by attitude, precision, and the integrity of the process.

What can no algorithm replace?
When does a service become a true experience?
And what makes personality and origin truly inimitable today?

An evening of substance, exchange, and perspective.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this special moment. And to Kussmann Sacher, Architectural Communication for the concept and design.

The real is not an effect.
It is an attitude.

Design, craft and agency take centre stage in the podcast conversation hosted by Shalini Misra, with Professor Daniel Charny MBE, Designer and educator, co-founder of Forth, and Oliver Jahn, CEO & CCO of House of Manus. Moving beyond objects and outcomes, the conversation turns to craft, participation and lived knowledge – reflecting on how creative thinking remains deeply human, whether shaped in villages or global cities.

From the role of craft incubators to the power of sensory awareness, the discussion reflects on making a way to reclaim agency in an increasingly abstract world. These ideas sit closely with the ethos of the Shakti Design Residency, which brings global designers into sustained collaboration with Indian master artisans – foregrounding exchange, process and co-authorship. What emerges is a shared belief in craft as an active force, one that connects people, place and practice, and offers hope through the act of doing.
