What used to be an industrial mundane element for building skyscrapers, roads, and homes, concrete furniture is now transforming living spaces with an unusual, more organic touch. While 2018 was all about the power of bold, vivid colours for your interiors, 2019 is fitting out at the other end of the aesthetic spectrum and we're fancying it more than ever. When you're looking to highlight texture, the key is to create contrast. In particular, concrete does best when it's juxtaposed against something natural, such as wood. You should also pay attention to the colors in your concrete and be sure to choose contrasting shades for the rest of the room.

Going for concrete furniture for its contemporary aesthetic is not the only reason for its increased popularity. Its low-key maintenance plays a good part in it. Wiping it with a soft cloth with warm water is the way to go. For spills, cleaning it with mild soap and water is the first order of business.
