Studio Corkinho
Designers & Architects
Studio Corkinho was conceived and founded in 2013 by the Belgian-Swedish design duo Cédric Etienne & Klas Dalquist in the Portuguese hills of the Alentej. It started with the simple idea of refining recovered cork bark and thus utilizing it sustainably. The goal of the duo is to change people's perception and awareness of objects and spaces. Studio Corkinho comes from a fusion of already existing values such as: nature, craftsmanship, heritage, patina and atmosphere.
The aim is to contrast the origin of raw beauty with the studio's own code of simplicity. The two collections BIRTH & MOTHER were introduced in 2017. Here we present you the growing MOTHER collection in advance, whose archaic products are made from 100% organic cork scraps in a long-term process.
For every item from the Mother collection sold, a tree will be planted in northern Senegal to regenerate the forest. A nice and sinful cycle in several ways.
