Concrete Flooring Gets Artistic
Concrete flooring in the home isn't all that new, and we've talked about it before (for example, there were the acid stained concrete floors, colorful concrete floor tiles, and those decorative concrete tiles from Ann Sacks), but here's something new. You might not have seen artistic concrete floors featuring floral designs before; they totally take the masculine/industrial feel out of a traditionally cold material.
When you peruse the gallery of "Concrete Art" over at Transparent House, you'll definitely rethink your perceptions of concrete flooring.
Not only does the material offer a lot of options when it comes to laying floors and working with it, but it's easy to maintain, friendly to allergy-sufferers (no place for those dust mites and that pet dander to hide), and eco-friendly compared to flooring types that frequently use unhealthful materials in the construction.
So, if you are looking for a cool new floor, and you bypassed concrete before, maybe it's time to rethink this artistic option.
