Description

At Living Concrete, we specialise in creating bespoke concrete reception desks tailored to suit any commercial space, from offices and retail units to showrooms, galleries, and hospitality venues. Each desk is custom designed to reflect the unique needs and aesthetic vision of your business, providing a perfect balance of functionality and style.


For architects and designers seeking sustainable solutions, Living Concrete is your ideal partner. Our reception desks are crafted using BTX Ultra High-Performance Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC), manufactured in the UK with a low environmental impact. By utilising locally sourced raw materials and adhering to eco-conscious production practices, we minimise our carbon footprint.  


Living Concrete holds both Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certifications, reflecting our strong commitment to sustainability.


Features and benefits:

  • Lighter than standard concrete desks: made using lighter BTX GRC high performance real polished concrete and a lightweight reinforcing core that reduces the overall weight significantly and allows for the desk to be moved if needed.
  • Hand finished, sealed and suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
