The key to cork is its unique cellular structure of 14-sided, density packed air-filled cells. These cells give cork its thermal and acoustical insulation traits, its lightweight compressibility, fire-retardant, and liquid/gas impermeable qualities. Cork's structure is comprised of millions of air pockets, basically 50% of cork is actually air. The cellular structure of cork makes cork tile a natural insulator. Not only will these green floors be warm under foot they also absorb sound.

The new terrace sits just six feet from the back of the house and is visible from the main windows of this three-story house. That meant that all views from all directions needed to be considered. Billy Goodnick

Better to plant a few varieties boldly than to use every crayon in the box. Billy Goodnick

Design as if your garden will never flower... Who needs flowers? Pairing foliage forms with differing form, color, texture and density provide interest much longer than passing flowers. Billy Goodnick
