Tom Dixon CORK dining table, Ø 100 cm, cork

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. By repurposing this wonder material for Tom Dixon's range of extremely fat edged and chubby silhouette furniture, the full advantage has been taken 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.
