"House of Menu"Scandinavian Design Originals.
3 little words. But they express everything for which we live and breathe: A never-ending search for beautiful Scandinavia design with true originality. Aesthetic and practical daily surprises that you become happier and happier to look at, touch and use. Surprises that make you say: But of course – how come no one has thought of that before?
The art of getting an original idea
Creativity is when our brain plays. When we allow our imagination to fly and explore the art of what is possible. We aim to think freshly. To question the existing shape of things. To dare to combine known things in a new way. And to create new combinations in form, function, material and aesthetics. We refine it all through our deep roots in Scandinavian nature and design tradition – the high quality material and the clean shapes. We strip away all unnecessary decorations, leaving the design idea to present itself in its pure form and in great craftsmanship.
Ambition keeps us going
If some day, someone manages to catch a falling star and turn it into a beautiful source of light with no need for electricity, that someone will be us. Is that ambitious? Yes! But this is the ambition that gives us the willpower to break down the boundaries of Scandinavian design and originality each and every day. This is the secret behind the unique spirit in every gift that carries the name Menu.

I think I’ll treat myself to a day devoted to really enjoying life. Completely relax. Take plenty of time to indulge myself. Perhaps a hot bath and a good back scrub, the air awaft with incense. Or just laze on the sofa beside a crackling fire, lost in a good book. Or share a cosy candlelight evening with those I hold closest. Disconnect for a moment. Stop. Sense. Savour.

Jakob Wagner is one of Scandinavia’s foremost designers at present, and he is one of only a handful to have exhibited at some of the biggest museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York with the Propeller Trivet from Menu.
Jakob is motivated by his love of meaningful shapes. He works at the balancing point between contrasting visual expressions: Masculine/feminine, organic/geometric, symmetric/asymmetric etc. “It brings the object to life, challenges our senses and appeals to our feelings,” he says – and it is this very approach that makes him so enjoyable to work with [... mehr]
