Introducing the Boardwalk Collection by Patryk Koca
Mark Tuckey introduces the launch of the Boardwalk Table. A stunning new piece by Sydney-based designer Patryk Koca. Renowned for his commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship, Koca’s designs blend practicality with high-quality artistry.
The Boardwalk Collection is a testament to his philosophy, bringing together elegance, functionality, and eco-conscious design.
Design and Inspiration.
The Boardwalk Collection features sleek, modern designs that emphasise both comfort and aesthetic appeal. Patryk Koca often draws inspiration from his surroundings, creating pieces that are both functional and beautiful.
As Koca mentions, “My surroundings, experiences, the natural environment, my connection to art and culture, and the people around me are my daily inspiration. Boardwalks are an iconic feature of Australia’s east coast, connecting us to nature and enriching our lifestyles. Whether wandering through Urunga’s mangroves, whale-watching south of Sydney, or exploring Merimbula’s oyster farms, they inspire connection and discovery.”
The Boardwalk Collection channels the deliberate, flowing forms of these timber pathways into versatile furniture.
Materials and Construction.
Crafted with high-quality materials, the Boardwalk Collection ensures durability and comfort. It typically features a combination of solid wood, light-filtering rattan, and plush upholstery, providing a timeless look suitable for various interior spaces. Koca’s passion for materials is evident: “Somewhat unintentionally, I’m now identified as a designer of wooden products. It’s the most proven and versatile natural material, used for millennia that offers a positive charge to any interior.”
Sustainability.
Koca’s designs, including the Boardwalk Collection, incorporate sustainable practices. This includes the use of eco-friendly materials and production methods that minimise environmental impact. Koca emphasises, “Creating products using ethical and sustainable methods with timeless value is becoming increasingly important.”
Versatility.
The Boardwalk Collection is designed to fit seamlessly into different settings such as living rooms, offices, or commercial spaces. Its elegant design makes it a standout in any environment.
Craftsmanship and Philosophy.
Koca’s approach to design is deeply rooted in craftsmanship and attention to detail. He states, “Timeless design, for me, resides in meticulous attention to detail rather than a sweeping overall form. My passion lies in the subtle art of obsessing over junctions between materials, detailing where they seamlessly converge.”
Boardwalk Table.
The Boardwalk Table takes you on a journey of discovery. Its continuous character lines draw your eyes to the sculpted edges of the legs, which drop to the ground abruptly like a cliff. Its stance is strong, and the detailing is bold, making it a sure conversation starter. While it is a statement piece, it is also practical with corner legs maximising seating capacity.
