Decorative Concrete for holiday makeovers of house or workplace

11/15/2005

With all the favorite holidays around the corner, decorations are part of the tradition and if long-term decoration is envisaged there is little that can beat decorative concrete for all sorts of ideas.

In the northern hemisphere the accent for the holidays is cozy warmth, family, friends and good cheer. The fireplace is the focus of attention where stockings are hung from the mantelpiece waiting for Father Christmas's generous visit. Thanksgiving and Chanukah too, have their traditions, both celebrations embracing family and close friends gathered together in cozy warmth of body mind and spirit.

Decorative concrete comes into the picture with its ability to transform a room with design and color of the fireplace surround and mantelpiece. Whether it is a homeowner or restaurant owner looking for a classic renaissance style or an ultra modern concept depends entirely on ones choice or the interior designer's imagination. Both are easily created with decorative concrete in many different styles, textures and vibrant colors.

If the home or restaurant owner was thinking of upgrading the hearth in preparation for the coming holiday season, now would be a good time to start looking and shopping around with using decorative concrete.

The same applies to novelty treatments of countertops. The variety of designs, textures and colors are infinite and are currently the very height of fashion. Imagination is the only limiting factor when using decorative concrete.

"This time of year is always the busiest and the most fun" says Blayde Penza, owner of Ace Concrete Inc. from his Sun Valley studio and workshop in Southern California,
"The great effects that can be created from decorative concrete are always a thrill for the client and for us when we see their positive response to the finished product."
