How to use decorative concrete in a traditional kitchen Concrete's
use in kitchens and bathrooms may still be considered
relatively"Modern"Design-Wise by the standard homeowner.But while
concrete can be used to create a modern or minimal look, it's also
perfectly adaptable to a more traditional Cheap Tiffany Bracelets
setting-Where it was so extensively used in the first place. Concrete
can act as a substitute for more traditional materials.Rather than just
using concrete to explicitly re-Create something from the past, you can
also combine it with other elements to suggest a timeless quality.In my
work, i always strive to strike a balance between innovation and
emotion, between spare contemporary and warm traditional.Adding mosaic
tile along the front edge of a concrete surface, inlaying bits of tile
along a backsplash, or even embedding a fossil in a countertop all
connect us to the past. A california cottage we renovated recently moved
from"Traditional"To"Transitional".A large concrete curved wall/counter
boldly separates the living room from the kitchen.Meanwhile, a stainless
steel integral sink countertop straddles one wall- yet, by inlaying
glass tiles into the backsplash and inserting a Traditional plate holder
in the cabinetry, enough balance is achievedToavoid a conflict of
styles. Let's take a turn-Of-Century"Craftsman"Style kitchen for a
hypothetical example.The cabinets would most likely be frame-And-Panel
with flush inlay doorframes.There would be wood wainscoting in the
dining area and perhaps tile around a single porcelain sink.The lighting
fixtures might have beveled glass or echoes of tiffany lamps.What
concrete application would be appropriate in this situation?I would look
into one or more of the following ideas in combination: 1.Choose an
earth tone color or natural gray.No bright colors. 2.Keep the front
face, or homepage
thickness, of the countertop at a minimum of 2-1/2"Up to 5".
3.Inset"Panels"Into the front face of the countertop to reflect the
cabinet doors.These panels would be no deeper than 3/8"And would measure
approximately 1/3"To the height of the front face, or 4.Recess the
appropriately sized or proportioned ceramic tiles with some embossing on
them into the face of the countertop or into a cast backsplash.Allow
the recess to be at least 1/4"In depth. 5.Mosaic tiles in groups Tiffany Jewellery UK
of four separated by 1/8"-1/4"Spacing could be placed on the countertop
surface as inlaid"Trivets"Next to the stove burners. (In the mold, they
would be placed face down on the bottom of the form. ) 6.Line the drain
board into the sink with tile or marble. Now i wouldn't want to use all
of the above accents-Just enough to carry a complementary flavor to the
craftsman look and feel.The concrete itself is earthy enough to carry
that load.It's up to you as a homeowner or designer to add the touch
that personalizes and enhances the piece.In some cases, for instance,
the overwrought"Traditional english manor"Kitchen, usually full of
elaborate detailing, can use a touch of restraint-The concrete counter
with a simple ogee edge detail and a complementary white porcelain farm
sink might just be perfect.
