This flat-top furniture piece is much more than a platform to keep objects off the floor.
This is a great example of a functional design combined with art- these tables are attention grabbing pieces, where a lot of effort is being invested into every single detail.
The unique finishes include rust ,patina and non-recurring variation in concrete surfaces.

Where can I use concrete in my home?Concrete countertops can be used in the kitchen-both indoor or outdoor, bathrooms and actually everywhere. Horizontal countertops must be at least 30 mm thick but also can be made thicker for aesthetic or structural reasons.. In vertical applications such as kitchen backsplashes and tiles, concrete is generally 15 mm thick. Concrete objects can be straight, curved, notched, multi-level, etc. Unlike other natural materials (such as marble or engineered surfaces)which would drastically increase in cost for curved shapes, creating curved concrete shapes involves little extra complexity and forming. Integral and vessel sinks are possible.
-
What colors are available for my concrete design?Actually-any color. The color options are virtually as diverse as the option in paint catalogue. The customer can specify a glass,stone or other object. You can specify the color, size and density of embedded objects. Coupled with the many color choices, you have myriad design options. We have basic color pallete (link), but the options are endless.

Color and texture alterationConcrete is a natural material. Many factors such as temperature, humidity, sand lot and cement lot can affect the final appearance of the final product. We use software developed to calculate mix design. However, colors and texture can still vary because of the above factors. Another factor that contributes to perceived variation is simply the size of samples. A 3” x 3” sample, or even a 6” x 6” sample, will look different than a whole countertop simply because the small sample does not capture all of the natural, random variations that will occur over a large surface. The color in a 3” x 3” sample may appear completely uniform, but a whole countertop in that same color will not appear as uniform. The same situation occurs with other natural materials such as granite. If you are looking for perfect uniformity, the solid surface might be a better countertop option for you.

Can I put a hot pot on my concrete countertop?Exactly like most of the countertop surfaces, it is best to use trivets. Thumb rule: if it is too hot to touch with the hand, so it is too hot to put on the surface.
