All Bark, No Bite (Except for the Price)
Date: August 10, 2007 | Category: Home Furnishings, The Home
When it comes to cork, what’s not to love about this all-purpose bark? Besides being entirely sustainable, recyclable, and plentiful, cork is a fire-, mold- and bug-repellent, heat-retaining, sound-proofing material that, in the words of furniture designer Daniel Michalik is capable of doing “things that only it can do.” And his work reflects that notion indeed. On a mission to explore the “rich potential of cork,” he has constructed exquisite – yet playful – shapes and innovative designs that will appeal to your sculptural and ecological sides alike. Additionally, the line is entirely functional. This 100% waterproof rocking lounge chair could make a perfect addition to your outdoor patio, deck or pool, however, as the price-tag reflects, it is not a disposable floaty. So, don your sunscreen, pop some champagne, and woo your guests…but be prepared for some serious green envy.
