Nate Dalesio of Multitude Studio recently completed his Amorim Cork=-covered home in South Salem, New York. The home was completely overhauled and rebuilt from the originally abandoned property's foundation.
"We selected Amorim Cork Facade for our exterior cladding as a result of looking for wood siding. We came upon the cork in another project that was published online and loved the monolithic appearance, the beautiful natural color it weathers to, and the great texture. We were already planning on using corrugated metal for our roof, and the smooth flush installation contrasted wonderfully with that material. The material’s thickness was also attractive since it emphasized the punched opening appearance at the windows." Nate said regarding his design process and material choices.
"The material was extremely easy to work with. It is lightweight, extremely easy to cut, and very straightforward to install, not to mention the beautiful monolithic aesthetic once installed and the benefit of acting as exterior insulation."
"We had a great experience with EcoSupply. They were very responsive, and the material was ordered and delivered promptly, including when we had to order extra packs towards the end of installation after under-estimating our material take-offs."
This project was recently featured on Dwell and Dezeen.
