THIS CONCRETE FLOOR IN A BUSY FAMILY KITCHEN is finished minimally, with two coats of boiled linseed oil, a finish that isn't as stain proof as sealer, but that makes a softer sheen.The slab is imbedded with radiant-heat polyethylene tubing.Color was added to the concrete after pouring, allowing for the use of two colors. The border pattern ties together the kitchen cabinets and gives an impression similar to a large oriental rug.
A GRID OF WOOD STRIPS IS CAST INTO THE blue -tinted concrete floor to effectively make small concrete slabs.Providing such control joints minimizes or even prevents cracking.
