El concrete or concrete it has become a trend material in new construction. It has gained presence both indoors as outdoors, managing to position itself as a reference material in industrial style environments, combined with other materials such as wood or ceramic.
A concrete or concrete ceiling prints to the bedroom certain unfinished air; especially when the air or heating ducts are exposed. Compensating for this "cold" aspect of concrete is, however, simple; it is enough to bet on wooden floors and / or warm carpets as in the following images.
Possessing a certain timelessness, concrete is today attractive enough to be part of interior spaces, as an object of decoration. It works in different finishes, being the precast concrete slabs the most used to finish ceilings.
Due to their weight, they can be handled and installed manually, providing greater cleaning than current traditional systems and also being more economical because they require less labor. Walls in shades of gray or white and wooden floors they will complete a harmonious base to create the bedroom.
The neutral tones; white, gray and tan, are the most common to decorate this type. You can also bet on a more daring combination such as that formed by black and fuchsia pink; a great proposal from my point of view to achieve a modern bedroom, ideal for a young couple.
We can achieve a nice contrast by combining the concrete on ceiling and walls with modern and sophisticated design elements, inspired by other classic styles. The minimalist trend of one era with the grandeur and sophistication of another. Or opt for a minimal style and a "hotel" room, more impersonal and cold.
If, like me, concrete or concrete hooks you more every day, this is a good way to experiment with this material in your home.
