natural brutalism: a sustainable collaboration

OVER 100 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

At Capra Designs, we proudly collaborate with a Portuguese cork manufacturer whose legacy stretches back to 1924. With over a century of expertise, our manufacturing partner brings a rare depth of knowledge—integrating cork oak forestry, advanced manufacturing techniques, research and development. This holistic approach ensures not only the highest quality cork but also a deep respect for the environment from harvest to final product. Together, we combine tradition with innovation to craft sustainable pieces designed to enhance everyday living.
