David Rockwell telah merilis koleksi kelima dengan Maya Romanoff – produsen handcrafted wallcoverings terbesar di Amerika Serikat – .yang berjudul Porto. Terbuat dari cork yang dipanen secara bertanggung jawab, diwarnai, dan ditata dengan tangan di atas kertas logam bercahaya. Nama koleksinya berasal dari Kota Porto di Portugal, yang menghasilkan 50% pasokan cork dunia.

Ketertarikan baru David pada Cork sebagai bahan menginspirasi koleksinya, bagaimana ia tertarik untuk menyelidiki penerapannya untuk wallcoverings karena keragaman karakteristik estetika dan kegunaannya dalam lingkungan binaan. Cork merupakan sumber daya yang sangat berkelanjutan, cepat terbarukan, dan dapat terurai secara hayati, dan setiap kali gabus diambil, kulit gabus beregenerasi dan menyerap CO2. Bahan ramah lingkungan ini semenarik mudah beradaptasi, dan dapat digunakan baik di bangunan perumahan maupun komersial.

Porto Deco
Tiga desain geometris dinamis Porto menampilkan lapisan tipis die-cut cork yang diletakkan dengan tangan di atas kertas perak atau emas dan kemudian ‘dicuci’ dalam 27 warna berbeda.

Presented by Som Santoso
Deco terinspirasi oleh kerumitan rantai, Elo dengan draping kain yang dramatis, dan Lino dengan serangkaian garis yang bervariasi namun berirama. Untuk meniru gerakan halus dan permainan ringan, desainnya mencakup pengElompokan warna cemerlang dan bersahaja dengan kertas logam bercahaya.

Porto Elo
“Our collaboration with Maya Romanoff has developed over many years and allowed us to think outside of the box when it comes to materiality and design. We were thrilled when Romanoff suggested we explore the potential of cork, especially since it has become a recent obsession in the studio. Porto highlights cork’s incredible range of aesthetic properties and versatility for interiors projects.” – David Rockwell –

Porto Lino
“We were inspired by the natural beauty of cork when creating Porto. With a multitude of colour combinations and luminous metallic lines to define the patterns, this new collection has elevated cork as an aesthetic with three thoughtful designs that can create an extraordinary environment.” – Joyce Romanoff, CEO of Maya Romanoff –
