Cork bedside shelves
Holland Park, London. 2008
European Oak, Birch Plywood, Stainless steel & Cork
Bedside tables made from laminated European Oak and with a top made from natural cork block. I think Cork is beautiful in its natural state like this, it has an amazing figure to it that looks like a piece of burled wood and it's warm, soft and naturally waterproof. Not for the first time the work of Alvar Aalto was an important inspiration technically and aesthetically for me.
