Microcement in the kitchen

SHOW ME YOUR KITCHEN, AND I'LL TELL YOU WHO YOU ARE.

The kitchen is not just a place where we prepare meals. The kitchen is the heart of the home – it is where family life thrives, where social gatherings most often take place, where we like to hang out and talk. It is a center of entertainment and often also a place of work. That is why we put so much effort into decorating our kitchens beautifully. We want them to be stylish, unique, and timeless, but also functional.

 

Recently, there has been a strong trend towards using microcement in kitchen interior design. This is because it is so versatile that it works practically anywhere – on floors, walls and as a finish for countertops.

 

Microcement is easy to combine with materials such as stone, wood, and steel. By using different application techniques and combining colors, we can achieve unique textures and shades. Concrete in interiors works well in combination with warm, cozy wood, soft carpets, and colorful textiles. Appropriate lighting is an extremely important element in an interior with a concrete finish. Halogen, fluorescent or neon lighting will add a modern touch to the interior. On the other hand, low-hanging, simple lamps with warm light will refer to the Scandinavian style.

Microcement kitchen countertop

The countertop on which we prepare meals is a key element of every kitchen. It must be resistant to moisture, dirt, high and low temperatures, as well as shocks and impacts.

 

Concrete countertops are not only visually appealing, but also very practical. They allow you to create a perfectly smooth, durable, easy-to-clean, and ultra-hygienic surface. Thanks to their properties, FESTFLOOR Life, HydroFest and Festfloor Titan, microcement are ideal for this type of application. Microcement on kitchen countertops adapts perfectly to any interior style, from modern minimalism to rustic arrangements. Regardless of the chosen aesthetic, a microcement countertop will be an excellent choice due to its durability, functionality, and attractive appearance. 

 

Thanks to concrete in the kitchen, we can create both a cool and elegant space, as well as a warm and cozy one – it all depends on the accessories.
