The founders issue

Two waysof seeing.One house.

One comes from luxury and hospitality. The other lives fashion from the inside and knows what it takes to build a brand as a mother. That combination is the product.

Character I — The host

David Fernández

Art, music, fashion and architecture. He knows who belongs in which room, and how to get them there.

David comes from the worlds of luxury, hospitality, fashion, music, art, architecture, membership and cultural strategy. He spent eight years working across Europe for Soho House, including involvement in major openings and membership strategies.

He went on to found MARYMANOLO, an independent agency working across PR, hospitality, community, partnerships and cultural experiences. Along the way his world has taken in The Hoxton, Louis Vuitton, restaurants, private members’ clubs, fashion, lifestyle brands and cultural projects.

His strength is relationships. He understands how brands behave, how people behave, how communities are built, and how a person moves from being interesting to being culturally relevant.

Character II — The guardian

Sunita Ria

Fashion and luxury. Mother of two. The voice that understands the talent and the brand at the same time.

Sunita comes from Manchester and sits naturally where music, fashion, lifestyle and luxury meet. She understands both sides of the talent equation: the person and the brand.

She has managed people, and she understands image, styling, fashion, social environments, luxury and cultural relationships.

As a mother of two, she brings something the house depends on: a deeply human understanding of responsibility, trust, protection and long-term thinking.
