What is concrete effect?
Concrete effect coating has become an increasingly used solution to give new life to various environments. In fact, this type of coating lends itself to many uses and various styles.
Isoplam® products allow you to obtain the concrete effect even on furniture and surfaces of all types.
Let's check out how to get the perfect concrete effect on walls, furniture and furnishing accessories.
Concrete effect coating
Concrete effect cladding is the best way to make a concrete effect wall.
Concrete effect coatings are the perfect solution to transform any surface of your interiors. The key is to choose the tone of gray that best suits the environment. Don't forget to check the lighting in the room to avoid getting too dark atmospheres.
Concrete effect bathrooms
Creating a bathroom with concrete-effect coatings is certainly a choice that winks at trends. In addition to that, this choice must be considered due to some physical characteristics.
In fact, microcement is a perfect material for the bathroom because it is water-repellent, easily washable, and resistant.
If you are thinking of creating a concrete effect bathroom, Isoplam® offers you some solutions such as its Deco Nuvolato .
The Nuvolato Floor has a very refined aesthetic appearance, which matches perfectly with concrete effect bathroom tiles. Thus, this original industrial concrete becomes a real work of art.
In fact, this finishing makes wall tiles and floors appear shaded with a darker color that contrast with the light background. A real cloudy sky effect.
Thanks to a wide range of colors, you will also have the possibility to fully customize your new concrete-effect floor.
Concrete effect kitchen
To create a perfect gray and white concrete effect kitchen, you can focus both on the floors and walls, and on the worktops. This is the right way to obtain a total visible concrete effect.
To achieve this effect, Isoplam® offers you a wide range of products according to your needs.
This type of coating gives the kitchen a modern and trendy touch, thanks to the typical shades of gray of concrete effect surfaces.
The effect can also be adopted on the kitchen worktop, thanks to products such as the thin Microverlay® microcement by Isoplam® which gives the worktop a fantastic concrete effect in just 3 mm.
H3> How is concrete effect created in the kitchen?
Whether we talk about the worktop, the kitchen table or the main wall, the operation starts with cleaning the surface. Once the surface has been cleaned, the primer is applied. At this point, two coats of Microverlay base or medium are applied, with intermediate sanding and cleaning. We then move on to the application of two coats of finish with relative sanding. The last step is the application of the protective resin that will give the glossy or opaque effect to your concrete-effect worktop.
Concrete effect furniture
The extraordinary versatility of creative cements with very low thickness and decorative coatings allows you to give new life to furniture, furnishing accessories and design objects, personalizing them with concrete-effect coatings for furniture.
You can create a perfect combination of furniture, floor, and wall tiles. Here is an example.
H3> The kitchen table in concrete effect
For example, if you want to harmonize your kitchen table with your new concrete effect floor, you can choose a concrete effect coating for furniture, choosing between the shades of infinite color combinations. Consequently, the table and the floor will be characterized by the same effect but with two different color tones.
A concrete effect main table is certainly an important focal point in the kitchen, which enhances the style of the whole surrounding environment. Finally, lighting is very important. Such a table needs to be combined with a central suspension lamp to be enhanced, making concrete effect even more visible.
Concrete effect walls
If you love industrial or metropolitan style, opt for a rough concrete effect wall. This type of cladding goes perfectly well with open space environments, such as the typical loft recovered from an industrial past.
In this type of environment, the raw concrete cladding enhances surfaces and spaces, reflecting the light and giving materiality to the whole house. The rough concrete effect can be achieved either by playing with the nuances and clouds typical of concrete, or by recreating the typical texture of the concrete curing formwork. In the first case you will get a soft effect, in which the scenic effect is given by the variation of shades and colors. In the second case, there will be a material component instead.
Another option is to spread the concrete surface by recreating the typical spatulas of rough drafting.
The choice depends on the type of final result you want to obtain, and on the area of the house where you intend to create the rough concrete effect wall.
