It used to be that when we thought of concrete, we thought of just a few things, such as sidewalks, driveways and cement slab house foundations. Most of the time the concrete used has been a pretty dull gray. Once in a while, for instance, in some southwestern towns, we could find some sidewalks that were various shades of rust and orange that mimic the beautiful mountains in their midst.
In the past decade, however, concrete has changed from a basic utility to a decorative enhancement, a creative and artistic essential in creating the
mood of resorts and homes throughout the world. Decorative concrete has become an integral part of the planning for many building plans – whether
commercial or private. The colors and textures of decorative concrete have become so important that often they are the centerpiece or focal point of a floor plan.
This phenomenon has changed the way that homes are created and office buildings, malls and other buildings are created. Imagine your basement
floors being the color of your choice, sealed to keep out mold and setting the tone for everything from the color and texture on your walls and the
furniture you buy.
Think about your kitchen counters being custom poured and cured right in your home in the color and texture you want – at about the same cost as a
pre-made countertop. Think of the hundreds of ways you could plan your decor around your custom countertop and matching or complementing floors.
Decorative concrete can do all this and more.
If you are planning to build or remodel a home, office, mall or any other type of structure, landscape, patio or pool, take the time to look into decorative concrete. You will be pleasantly surprised at what you find.
