Clerkenwell: Havwoods meets Cork
Havwoods are set to impress at this year’s Clerkenwell Design Week. Throughout the three-day event, the flagship Havwoods showroom located in the heart of Clerkenwell on Great Sutton Street will be hosting a series of engaging talks throughout the festival.
Combining unrivalled expertise, stunning designs and an expanding global portfolio of showrooms, BCFA member Havwoods sets the benchmark for superior quality wood flooring.
Product release
New for 2019 and revealed at CDW, Havwoods has introduced a new collection of solid cork wall tiles to its Vertical collection. A unique concept in wall coverings, the 3D Cork collection is available in three signature designs: Giza, Modo and Reyes.
The surface of each feature tile offers a highly textured, raised-pattern finish that is designed to add interest to vertical surfaces, whether used as an accent panel or across a full wall scheme. All three styles are offered in two sizes of 150 x 150mm and 300 x 300mm and three colours to allow for imaginative formats and patterns to be created with ease.
Cork is the outer bark of the cork oak tree, which grows mainly in the Mediterranean region. It can be harvested from the same tree for around 200 years making it an environmentally friendly, renewable and sustainable surface choice for interior installations.
Alongside its eco credentials, cork is also a natural sound and heat insulator, whilst also being dust, bacteria and fungus repellant. Cork is an amazingly versatile design material; by altering the tonal variations and layering of Havwoods’ Cork 3D tiles, it is possible to create a whole range of stunning textures and visual effects.
Discussions
To kick off proceedings, Havwoods is proud to announce that it will be holding a panel discussion with design duo, Jordan Cluroe and Russell Whitehead of 2LGStudio. Taking place at the Clerkenwell showroom on Tuesday 21, the talk will be hosted by renowned interiors and lifestyle writer, and former Interiors Editor at The Sunday Times Style, Claudia Baillie. The talk will explore the concept of timeless design, focusing on how sustainable, high-quality and conscious design decisions make a positive impact on the future of interior spaces.
In signature Havwoods fashion, the three-day event will be accompanied by canapés, wine and entertainment, ensuring that visitors are well looked after throughout the festival. Havwoods’ Clerkenwell showroom displays hundreds of its stunning wood flooring and cladding designs, which can be viewed on a drop-in basis by both trade specifiers and retail customers. The spacious two-story premises have been designed to showcase the brand’s exclusive collections in an inspirational and relaxed setting, ideally situated in the heart of Clerkenwell’s design district.
