I have always been a huge fan of cork flooring.  I had always seen it in a tile shape.  They now have a plank cork flooring and it is BEAUTIFUL!!  I have seen it in kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, entrances....VERY NICE!!  For those of you that don't know cork is a completely renewable resource harvested as bark from living cork trees that are not harmed by the harvest.  It is not unusual to have a 200 year old tree still producing cork bark.
