Decorative Concrete LIVE! to be Held at World of Concrete
Concrete Decor magazine and the Concrete Decor RoadShow will showcase decorative and architectural concrete in a homelike setting Tuesday, Jan. 17, through Friday, Jan. 20, at the 2017 World of Concrete in Las Vegas.
On a 40-by-40-foot concrete stage in the outdoor Concrete Surfaces & Decorative Pavilion across from the South Hall, Decorative Concrete LIVE! will feature displays alongside demonstrations of horizontal and vertical concrete finishes that can be used in quality homes of any size and style.
From stamping and staining to polishing and saw cutting, up to eight horizontal applications will be displayed alongside up to five finishes on interior and exterior vertical surfaces. Treatments such as trowel-applied coatings, stenciled or embossed patterns and carved toppings will be applied to insulating concrete forms (ICF), the concrete building-block system which will form the walls of the representative show home.
ICF walls throughout the floorplan will help maintain an open look and feel while also distinguishing rooms and areas. In addition to the static display of finishes, live demonstrations by artisans and innovators scheduled throughout the week will showcase trendsetting finishes.
