When deciding on what look you would like to achieve you need to think about the following at the pre construction planning stage.
- How much stone/aggregate you wish to see on the finished surface
- Concrete colour
- Aggregate type and colour
- Honed or Honed and Polished finish
- Position of expansion cuts or joints
- Type of expansion joints; saw cut, decorative metal jointing system, wood inlays
- Wet areas to drain
- Lighting
- North facing windows to absorb the suns energy – thermal mass
- Indoor outdoor flow
