ARO Plank 5 draws inspiration from the clapboard siding at Architecture Research Office’s Martha’s Vineyard House and enables customization across large areas with the simple combination of a few standard components. The three modules of Wide, Narrow A, and Narrow B are chamfered and set at varying depths to cast compelling, evolving shadows. Their horizontality and depth are accentuated by the texture of the leather-wrapped PET substrate. Planks install quickly and easily with Spinneybeck’s Interlock Mounting System and are available in a wide range of leather qualities and colors.

• Maintenance For finished leathers, wipe with a cool, damp cloth. For tougher soiling, use a pH-balanced soap such as Dawn with a 1:10 ratio of soap to water and rinse. Repeat, if needed. Occasional use of Spinneybeck Finished Leather Cleaner, Conditioner & Protector is recommended. For naked (aniline) leathers, wipe entire surface with a soft cloth and cool water to even out any abrasions or stains. Do not spot rub, for it will darken only that area. Occasional use of Spinneybeck Aniline Leather Cleaner, Conditioner & Protector is recommended. Other leather cleaners such as saddle soap or household cleaners that may contain harsh chemicals, alcohol or ink removers should never be used.
• Variation Color variation of naked leathers may be more pronounced beyond the normal commercial range. A Cutting for Approval (CFA) is required for all orders.

• Colorfastness to Light Varies by leather
• Colorfastness to Crocking Varies by leather
