In this example, the stylish design of interior space is achieved by using concrete as a prime material. The spaces connect well with the exterior, which is separated just by the glass panels. Here even the floor is of concrete material having smooth texture, while the stairs are of grainy texture. Walls are cladded by the wooden panels.

By using appropriate lighting, the essence of the spaces can be transformed. Especially in the living room and bedrooms, light fixtures play an important role to enhance the material. One can use the stain remover to clean the concrete and can call the concrete stain contractor for the same.

The concrete walls can sometimes be of a darker tone and hence proper lighting from both natural and artificial sources are equally important.
