Concrete, no longer a cold, dark, and dungeon feel....

Concrete has come of age....

Today I am writting about the one style I never really have liked in moderen, contemporary deasign. Heavy concrete use in building and interior design. Alway looked at by me as cold, dungeon looking, and moldy, I am now forced to take back my previous opinions and talk about this style in a positive manner and give it the respect I have never given it. Totally opposite of what I have felt about it in the past, this style has come of age and completely took me by surprise, in fact I now would consider this as one of two routes to take when re-designing or building my future house. Compleelt stunning and amazing, I found one example I have to share with all of you.

Bright, modern, white, and absolutely stunning, the following pictures were once thought as an impossibility by me. A perfect blend of concept, planning, implementation all the way around: Architecture, Interior design, exterior design, and furniture design.
