In an installation that re-invents the idea of the garden room and makes a stand-alone studio space an object of aesthetic desire, KIWI&POM have, quite literally, driven this multi-talented, hi-tech material up the wall. And over and down and around again, from interior to exterior. As a striking and high-performance solution for interior cladding and exterior facades, DuPont™ Corian® has already begun to make radical headway, in typical trend-leading style.
By virtue of its extraordinary versatility and an innovative fixing system, this world-class material now graces the exterior of several high-profile international structures, including hotels, a playground pavilion and several luxury villas. DuPont™ Corian® also makes a dramatic art of decorative wall-cladding in many high-impact interior schemes, both residential and commercial.
For 100% Design 2010, KIWI&POM will apply the material’s ingenuity to a sensuously curving façade that wraps a studio style cabin, plus various integrated interior elements, including storage and furniture. But it doesn’t stop there. Of the many valuable functional properties of DuPont™ Corian®, its homogeneity, UV resistance, non-porosity and easy-care durability make it ideal for garden applications and the project will also include planters and beautiful, green ‘living walls’ by BioTecture.
Strong, radiant and sophisticated, DuPont™ Zodiaq® quartz surface, also features in the scheme as elegant ‘herringbone’ flooring and in furniture designs. Look out also for some of the latest colour options for DuPont™ Corian®, including choices with recycled content, and for the numerically inspired, digitally-carved 3D ‘Math’ collection of decorative wall panels.
