Crazy for Concrete

At Susan Semmelmann Interiors, we are crazy for concrete! Once used mainly for foundations and behind-the-scenes structural applications, this amazing material is experiencing a rebirth as an artful design element for interior spaces with jaw-dropping results. Concrete is multi-faceted in its uses, and these images show some of the gorgeous possibilities available as fabulous interior design options. With its edgy, industrial vibe, exposed concrete lends an urban, contemporary feel, it works well with other organic materials like rough-hewn beams and warm wood accents while also being entirely at home as a complement to a modern, sleek aesthetic. We love working with our clients to add concrete features during the construction detailing phase of planning and design, and we are doing that more and more often these days. Whether they envision a larger scale application or a smaller focal accent, it is vital that we integrate it into the plans from the ground up to create a cohesive flow and continuity of design. With its moody appeal and a beautifully grounding effect, concrete can add a show-stopping view to any interior. Let Susan Semmelmann Interiors help change your view and make you crazy for concrete!
