Eight stylish living rooms where board-marked concrete adds character


For our latest lookbook, we\'ve collected eight living rooms from Dezeen\'s arc،e where architects have used board-marked concrete walls and ceilings to add textural interest.

As its name suggests, board-marked concrete, or board-formed concrete, is concrete that has been created using timber boards in its casting.

This imprints the pattern of the wood onto the concrete, giving it a more ،ic look and making it feel less industrial than smoother concrete.

As seen in the eight interiors below, board-marked concrete can add tactile interest and function as a stylish backdrop to living rooms across the globe.

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen\'s arc،e. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring kitchens brightened by skylights, exposed structural ceiling beams and clerestory windows.
