Please enjoy a sneak peak of the Cork Collection by Grain, a body of work that began as a fascination with the material itself.
The realization of Grain’s meticulous research of cork’s material capabilities, this collection is a series of CNC lathed tables and a bench that highlight the formal longevity and environmental sustainability of Mediterranean cork. “We wanted to honor this extraordinary material first and foremost,” says Chelsea Minola of Grain. “We worked to take advantage of the block and cylinder forms that are standard in the cork production process and used these standards as the basic formal components of our final designs.” The results are at once monolithic and inviting, familiar and novel, and ultimately both sustainably functional and stunning.
See the Cork Collection and more introductions next week Here at Colony, 2021, our first exhibit since before the pandemic.
For the safety of all our guests and in compliance of NYC COVID regulations, we are accepting RSVPs for staggered entry, limiting capacity to 20 people at a time and checking names and vaccination cards upon arrival.
