Concrete Floored Abode - a cabin on Lake Wenatchee
http://gelottehommas.com/completed/Cabin_on_Lake_Wenatchee.html

This home is a cutting edge design from floor to ceiling. The open tresses and gorgeous wood tones fill the home with light and warmth, especially since everything in the home is reflecting off the gorgeous black polished concrete floor.

As a material for use in the home, concrete is top notch. As the longest lasting flooring solution available concrete’s durability can’t be beat. It’s cost effective, gorgeous, long lasting and let’s not forget the possibility of ambient heat! There is truly nothing like the feeling of a heated bathroom floor warm against your socks in the morning.

Good design is easy to come by, but great design requires a whole package, bigger picture mentality. The Cabin on Lake Wentachee is definitely the whole package from top to bottom. Polished concrete is the new cutting edge of architectural design, and Gelotte Hommas has proven just how stunning the results can be.

Is the black kemiko stain here diluted with water or full strength? and how long did you leave it on? »

Gelotte Hommas Architecture Thanks for your question. These floors are amazing, we agree. The cabin’s concrete floor was finished with a “Tortoise Shell” Kemiko stain.

Fireplace stone - HI - I like the stone you used for the fireplace? Is it a veneer and if so,could you tell me the brand and color? I have a brick fireplace and I am looking to cover it with stone. Thanks, Brad »

Gelotte Hommas Architecture Thank you for your comment Brad. The fireplace is actually quarried stone, averaging about 5 inches in thickness. The pattern is 50% squares and rectangles with the other 50% being ledge stone from the same quarry. There are also 6 larger rocks, which the owner personally selected, that the stone mason then worked into the design.
