DESIGN NAME: Grigi
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Cork Knitwear
INSPIRATION: At the zenith of portuguese interest in its most precious raw material, there is still a broad dissatisfaction in its use. Burned in bases for pots, trodden on floors, pierced opening bottles, are all common examples. Few things come as close as clothing do, a silent statement of confidence, comfort and identity. The knit cork make with cork yarn is a allows to demonstrate the full potential and versatility of cork to the point of being touched on the skin through the wardrobe
