Concrete Jungle Fever!

Caught the fever, yet? Be careful, it's contagious! Concrete can morph into just about anything- counter tops, tables, floors, benches. This unique material is environmentally sound, durable, and dynamic. Despite its hard and tough feel, it can be stained, polished, and sealed for a finished look. Concrete may seem intimidating, but he's not such a tough guy- just pair him with some soft goods such as linens or an over-sized club chair. That way, his tough edge gets taken off with a softer look. Haven't caught concrete jungle fever yet? Just take a look at these great designs. Enjoy


 
 Sturdy and portable concrete tables- a simple, highly functional design.

Take a seat on concrete! This sculpture may not be as comfortable as your sofa, but it is much more fun!  

Re-think your sink! Concrete can even be used in your bathroom. 

 This piece gives 'set the table' a whole new meaning!

Concrete Ideas for Concrete Floors!

Concrete is a material that for some is not something that goes in their home. Its cold, uninviting, and seems to raw for a home.  Things have changed. Concrete is a sustainable product that can be manipulated in so many ways. You can stamp it, score it, painted it, stain it......the possibilities are endless. These are a few examples of what can be done with this versatile  product. Enjoy!


 This simply stained concrete with subtle graphic detail gives some interest to a space without being overpowering.



  This looks like wood planks, I know! It is just the concrete playing tricks on you.  Stamped concrete give you texture and durability like hard wood flooring would but its better for the environment and on your wallet.


 
Painting with a bold pattern and lots of color is like having a built in rug.

  Making concrete resemble other more traditional materials is becoming a popular option for those who love the look of expensive Italian tile. Adding two or three colors can make a bigger impact on a space.
