The smooth and polished look of this concrete countertop is an inspiring addition to an already beautiful piece of home design.
Located at the 'Inner West Warehouse,' this concrete countertop was designed and executed by Australian firm Corben Architects. The countertop itself is part of an overall redesign of an empty warehouse that was skillfully transformed into both a luxurious home residence, commercial florist workshop and even a space for storing a collection of luxurious racing cars.
The countertop itself is able to become the centrepiece of an already beautifully designed and executed interior space. Made from polished concrete, this 29 feet long countertop naturally flows from the concrete floor and makes for an excellent space for cooking or entertaining guests.
