A tactile material which has been used for millennia in nautical, construction, apparel and food applications, Cork is the ultimate traditional material fit for the future. Our latest experiments with cork include a series of tables, a stool and a shelving system.
"When I was growing up we had cork floors and they had this amazing warmth and tactility. Cork is also sound absorbent, fireproof, water resistant and lighter than water, which is why it floats, so it's easy to transport. In terms of a dream material, you couldn't really get a lot better." - Tom Dixon
Strongly expressed materiality is an underpinning theme of most of what we do and that’s why the Cork collection is our current obsession. By repurposing this wonder material for our range of extremely fat edged and chubby silhouette furniture, we have taken full advantage of the elasticity, the sound absorption and water proof nature of cork, which combined with its natural beauty makes a unique set of seriously sculptural furniture with expressive minimalist attributes and superior functionality.
