Decorating with Exposed Aggregate

Exposed aggregate is an amazing option for your next home decorating project. With exposed aggregate, you can create amazing effects and designs without breaking the bank.

Benefits of exposed aggregate

Exposed aggregate is durable and skid-resistant. Thus, it is ideal for footpaths, walkways, patios and pool decks. This is because it is highly versatile and can blend well with a variety of architectural styles. Exposed aggregate can be used with building facades and decorative retaining walls. It needs little maintenance as well, and it can last a long time.

Choosing exposed aggregate

It might be challenging to pick the right exposed aggregate finish to use for your home, mostly because there’s just so many to choose from! To start, here are some factors to consider that will make the task easier:

● Colour ● Size and gradation of the aggregates ● Hardness ● Shape ● Method of exposure

Aggregates using natural stones such as granite, basalt or quartz are popular choices because of their rich colours. Depending on their geological origin, colours can range from delicate pastels to deeper shades. Regardless, they look fantastic as decorative materials and can significantly enhance your home’s aesthetic.

Enriching the appeal of exposed aggregate

Exposed aggregate looks amazing on its own, but is also fantastic when paired with other materials! Along with other decorative concrete options, it can achieve various special effects that enrich the appeal of your project.

You can play with varying textures by combining smooth concrete surfaces with exposed aggregate finishes. You can also have fun with colours and use complementary shades to set off the exposed aggregate palate.
