Concrete usually has the impression of raw, cold, and bulky material, therefore, the products made from cement also seem to have a simple design. For example, basic geometric shapes like circular, rectangular, or square are the common layout of concrete furniture. While it’s true that the rustic aesthetic of concrete makes it more suitable for the industrial or minimalist style of decoration. The concrete design which is creative and brilliant is enormous. A lot of amazing designers in the world saw the beauty in the rawness of concrete and produce many outstanding pieces of furniture, such as the concrete bench. Here are the top 4 concrete artworks collected by Q-Furniture Factory.
Q-Furniture Factory – Aesthetic And Creative Concrete Designs In The World
1. Stitched Concrete Bench (Florian Schmid) – Q-Furniture Factory
Concrete Canvas (CC), an impregnated fabric that solidifies when hydrated, can create rain-proof, and fire-resistant effects for long-term use. And Floran Schmid, the designer of “stitched concrete bench” also takes advantage of its flexibility. The material allows the German designer to it into whatever shape or proportion he wants. The seams are sewn together with vividly colored strings, giving the concrete a unique textile appearance. The material is the mixture of the gentleness of the cloth-ish look and the durable nature of cold concrete. As a result, the final product maintains its delicate appearance despite the material being more robust.
2. Concrete Things Armchair (Poul Christiansen & Boris Berlin, Komplot Design)
Using cutting-edge 3D printing, Poul Christiansen and Boris Berlin, Komplot Design has launched a “concrete things” collection for Swedish brand “Nola”. The Grid chairs have wave-like patterns carved across their surfaces, and the concrete is flat and pristine. Simple geometric shapes with molded deformation create the 3D effect. Making a vestige or remaining memory of someone who has sat in them before.
3. Rocking Chair (Paulsberg)
It is one of the world’s first rocking chairs made of carbon-fiber-reinforced concrete, and the handcrafted construction is only 5mm thick. The swing chair by Paulsberg is a remarkable piece of concrete furniture that combines solidity with pleasure and comfort. This is the result of the rough, concrete exterior of the swing chair softened by the gentleness of bio-leather upholstery. In order to protect the foundation of the chair, the design also attaches a layer of leather.
4. Whorl Table (Aronowitz)
Designers are frequently required to go out of their comfort in order to create innovative products. The Whorl table designed by Aronowitz is an excellent example of such pieces of furniture. He produces an elegant design that resembles silk. The colored cement mortar has a velvety texture on the outside. At the same time, the material’s roughness gives the table a particular urban feel. Aronowitz can mold and shape concrete while seemingly bending it to his will using bespoke procedures and techniques thanks to the “concrete cloth” material – Concrete Canvas.
