Chimera

Chimera explores the integration of CNC-milled cork and sand-cast aluminum, creating a balanced dialogue between sustainable materials and structural performance. Guided by a purposeful design approach, the seating piece pairs the tactile warmth and cushioning qualities of cork with the strength and stability of a cast aluminum base.

The precision of CNC milling not only enhances ergonomic comfort but also supports a low-waste production process, allowing surplus cork to be efficiently reconstituted into new blocks reinforcing the project’s commitment to material responsibility.
