Elevate Your Home with Bespoke Concrete Furniture and Pre-Cast Sinks: Durable, Stylish, and Customisable Solutions
Table of Contents
Concrete has evolved far beyond its industrial roots to become a sought-after material for modern interiors. Its versatility, durability, and timeless aesthetic make it an ideal choice for creating bespoke furniture and pre-cast sinks that are as functional as they are stylish.
At Lazenby, we specialise in crafting handcrafted concrete elements, including worktops, surfaces, furniture, and sinks, tailored to your exact specifications. Whether you’re looking to add a statement piece to your home or create a cohesive design with polished concrete floors, our bespoke concrete solutions are designed to elevate your space.
Why Choose Concrete for Furniture and Sinks?
Concrete is no longer limited to construction and industrial applications. Its adaptability and strength make it an exceptional material for residential furniture and sinks. Here’s why concrete is a fantastic choice for these elements:
1. Durability That Lasts Decades
Concrete is inherently robust and hard-wearing, making it ideal for furniture and sinks that need to withstand daily use. With proper care and maintenance, concrete elements can last for decades, developing a unique patina over time that adds to their charm.
2. Customisation for Unique Designs
Concrete’s versatility allows for endless design possibilities. Whether you’re envisioning a sleek, minimalist sink or a bold, sculptural piece of furniture, concrete can be moulded to any size, shape, or style.
3. Aesthetic Appeal
Concrete offers a modern, industrial aesthetic that complements a wide range of interior styles. Its natural texture and ability to be finished in various colours and effects make it a standout choice for contemporary homes.
4. Seamless Integration
Concrete furniture and sinks can be colour-matched to polished concrete floors or other concrete elements in your home, creating a cohesive and harmonious design.
5. Eco-Friendly Material
Concrete is a sustainable choice, particularly when crafted using locally sourced materials and eco-friendly practices, as we do at Lazenby.
Bespoke Concrete Furniture by Lazenby
At Lazenby, we pride ourselves on our ability to bring your design visions to life. Our bespoke concrete furniture is handcrafted by expert master craftsmen, ensuring every piece is unique and meticulously finished.
Customisation Options for Concrete Furniture
- Size and Shape: Whether you need a compact coffee table or a large dining table, we can create furniture to your exact dimensions.
- Design Features: Incorporate unique design elements such as inlays, textures, or decorative trims.
- Colour Matching: Choose from our extensive range of colours or request a bespoke shade to match your interior.
- Applications: Our concrete furniture options include worktops, islands, tables, reception desks, fire hearths, and more.
In-Situ vs. Pre-Cast Furniture
We offer two methods for crafting concrete furniture:
- In-Situ (On-Site): Ideal for larger pieces or when a seamless, joint-free finish is required. In-situ casting ensures the furniture blends perfectly with its surroundings.
- Pre-Cast (Off-Site): Perfect for smaller or more intricate pieces. Pre-cast furniture is crafted in our Yeovil factory, offering a more uniform appearance and precise detailing.
Pre-Cast Concrete Sinks: Functional and Stylish
Concrete sinks are a stunning addition to any bathroom or washroom, offering a unique blend of style and practicality. At Lazenby, our pre-cast sinks are handcrafted using Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC), making them lightweight yet incredibly durable.
Features of Lazenby Pre-Cast Sinks
- Durability: Hard-wearing and resistant to daily use, our sinks are designed to last for decades.
- Customisation: Available in a range of sizes, shapes, and colours, with options for single, double, or multi-basin designs.
- Lightweight Construction: GRC ensures our sinks are lighter than traditional concrete sinks, making them easier to handle and install.
- Distinctive Aesthetic: Each sink is unique, with natural variations that add character and charm.
- Easy Maintenance: Sealed for protection against stains and moisture, our sinks are easy to clean and maintain.
Standard Pre-Cast Sink Options
We offer a variety of pre-cast sink designs to suit different needs and preferences:
- Round Vanity Sink: Compact and stylish, available in smooth or fluted finishes.
- Single Vanity Sink: Perfect for smaller bathrooms, with or without tap holes.
- Double Sink: Ideal for shared spaces, offering ample room for multiple users.
- Shallow Vanity Sinks: A sleek option for modern bathrooms.
- Under-Mount or Stand-On Sinks: Versatile designs that can be integrated into various settings.
For bespoke designs, we can create sinks up to 3 metres in length, depending on the overall weight. Larger items can also be discreetly broken down into smaller pieces for easier installation.
Colour and Finish Options
Both our concrete furniture and pre-cast sinks are available in a wide range of colours and finishes to suit your design preferences.
Colour Options
Our pre-cast items are available in 14 standard colours, including:
- Mist
- Platinum Grey
- Fossil
- Dune
- Ebony
- Midnight
For bespoke projects, we can create custom colours to match your interior design. Please note that pre-cast colours may differ slightly from polished concrete colours due to the different manufacturing processes.
Finishes
Choose from smooth, industrial, or textured finishes to achieve the desired look. Each piece is sealed to enhance durability and protect against stains and moisture.
Care and Maintenance
Concrete furniture and sinks are designed to be low-maintenance, but proper care is essential to preserve their beauty and functionality.
Maintenance Tips
- Sealing: Ensure the surface is properly sealed to protect against stains and moisture.
- Cleaning: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and avoid harsh chemicals.
- Heat Protection: Always use heatproof mats for hot pans or appliances to prevent damage.
- Stain Prevention: Wipe up spills promptly, especially acidic liquids like lemon juice or vinegar.
With regular care, your concrete furniture and sinks will develop a natural patina that enhances their character over time.
