Sense Of Place - Sustainable Cornish Design

This beautiful table caught our eye on Moco Loco this week. The fervent hope was that anyone who designs a table with such respect for the natural form and beauty of wood must love trees as much as we do. Sense of Place is a bespoke design studio in Cornwall, UK, that specialises in furniture, cabinetry and ‘interior solutions’, which from looking at their portfolio translates as kitchens. Sense of Place's strength seems to be a beautifully handcrafted blend of traditional carpentry with an original design twist and a love for their materials. They clearly state that they use ‘only the best-quality materials and timber from well-managed and sustainable forests’. This particular table is a one piece made from local Cornish Macracarpa wood. via: Moco Loco ::Sense Of Place.
