The scope of interior design today covers almost all buildings, including houses, offices, shops, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, cafes, department stores, beauty salons, clothing stores, factories, schools, etc. All buildings inhabited by humans. The materials most used as interior materials for interior construction are wood, stone, tiles, bricks, blocks, cement and concrete, metal materials, glass, painting materials, secret materials, waterproofing materials, plastic materials, wallpaper, carpets, curtains. and blinds and window materials. Although the durability aspect is considered a lot, and the lifespan issue is being paid a lot of attention, it is the design that cannot be discarded nonetheless. Since interest in interiors is increasing these days, the appearance and materials of buildings are also very important. Cork is starting to get a lot of attention as an interior material. Currently, the most widely used use of cork is a wine stopper. This is because it has the unique elasticity and waterproofness of cork. Cork is a material often used for interior accessories. Cork, with its unique texture, is attractive enough on its own, but can be used for insulation or room use. As a result of scanning microscopic analysis of wine cork and commercial cork, the difference in microstructure was not significant. |
