The latest color trend.... polished concrete micro topping colored light grey
Hi, Gary,
I just wanted to send you and Christian a long overdue thank-you for helping us out on short notice,
and for the great job you did at Katey’s condo in early September.
It really made the world of difference, making her place look much airier.
Thanks again,
Cheers, Sue
Ps I rarely open my emails, so I just was going through them now, and realized I over-looked sending you a thank-you!

Rejuvenating a Mill Reef Club family home in Antigua
who foresaw the demand for travel and leisure in the aftermath of World War 2.
Ward aimed to create a private resort where like-minded people of diverse interests
could vacation.After lengthy investigation, he chose Antigua for its white sand beaches,
turquoise waters and steady breezes.
We made the deadline, which was key. Appreciated your intensity about getting things done. Andrew is bringing the owner of the Jumby Bay project to our house on 11/21 and has made many complimentary comments about your products and the results at our place, so I think you should anticipate travel down there next summer. Let us know if that works out. We always go for the week of July 4 and might need to go more if we are doing the guest house floors, which we plan to do.
I have not found out how the remaining floors went--upstairs bathroom and terrace and front porch. I will send you photos when I get them. We go back in early December. I have emailed Ersdale Stevens, the floor guy, for a progress report, but I have heard nothing. Hard to figure because he was so intent on giving us his email address. Laurent has sent us nothing.
Best to you. We are truly relieved to have the floors addressed--they have been a big issue for years. We enjoyed having you there and will be sure to get you (and your wife) back sometime soon. Paul also enjoyed your company.
You do realize we were barely shy of a category 1 hurricane when you were doing the living room, surf room, bar and entry.

Arapido polished concrete for down town city loft
Loft Living
The conversion of buildings to lofts - result in what is known as the "hard loft".
These are buildings with history and character.They have a harder edge of either
concrete construction,or "mill"construction of exposed old brick and original
wood posts, beams and concrete floors.
The Architecture of Ricardo Legorreta ... 10,000 sqft of Arapido concrete sanded but not polished.
the "wall culture" of Mexico. Emphasizing the supremacy of solids over voids,
the use of colour to enclosed wall space, and the South American preference
for privacy.
Legorreta designed regionally building appropriate modern architecture that avoided
the stereotypical styling.....his diverse group of buildings achieved a supreme blend
of space, light and colour regardless of there stark difference in scale.
Arapido concrete flooring assists architect in achieving Visual Art
Minimalism describes movements in various forms
of art and design,where the work is set out to expose
the essence or identity of a subject through eliminating
all non-essential forms ,features or concepts.
