New Collections

This is an exciting time of year for the Interior Design Industry as not only are fabric companies bringing out all of their new books featuring an array of fantastic fabrics for the Autumn/Winter, but Design Week and Decorex are only round the corner.
This is an especially exciting time for Concept Interiors as we are planning our launches from now until the end of the year which will feature brand new window displays and new furniture features throughout our showroom.

We are lucky enough to have just had a fabulous promotional photoshoot for our showroom, which features examples of stunning rooms we have created which clients can look at and envisage in their home. Our launches will not only allow clients to view our fantastic displays of furniture, lights and accessories but also will allow them to see the glamorous new decorations we will be getting in for Halloween and Christmas.

We are also in the fortunate position of being featured in Surrey Life's October issue. Our head designer Samantha Morgan is being interviewed and discusses her interior experiences and what are her best picks for the up coming season, as well as more gorgeous pictures of our showroom. Don't miss out on your chance to see it!

Our New Showroom and a look at Polished Plaster

We have only been in Weybridge 2 months but our showroom is near enough complete. It is filled with a variety of bespoke furniture, unique artwork and stylish lighting. Throughout the showroom we have various wall finishes on display, ranging from Mica wallpaper by Altfield in silver, which creates the look of shimmery 'shell-like' flakes across the wall, wallpaper from Brian Yates that provides the illusion of two images instead of one and slate tiles by Surface that woould add a contemporary look to any room. What we have featured most on the walls in our showroom is Polished Plaster.

Polished Plaster is a specialised technique that starts with limestone rocks from rivers or quarries and then, by using heat, water and time, the limestone is turned into what can only be described as a 'lime putty'. It can be mixed with a variety of marble dusts and applied to turn an ordinary wall or ceiling into a masterpiece.
Polished Plaster has the ability to give a multitude of different effects from suede to marble to stone. These effects can be incorporated with many different styles such as, Contemporary, Rustic and Traditional. For centuries artists have been creating beautiful walls coloured with natural ingredients and it is through these artists imagination and refinement that these unique effects are created.

We are lucky enough to have Polished Plaster displayed in four different parts of our showroom. In our main showroom we feature two different effects; in the entrance we feature a grey marble finish, then as you move further into our showroom we have a suede-like, warm neutral with a metallic texture and soft pearl effects. We also have it in our kitchen as a lime-based glossy stucco with a gold wax finish, and because Polished Plaster can be used in wet areas we wanted to show this by featuring it in our bathroom using a shimmery mink finish.

It is essential that Polished Plaster is applied by highly skilled and fully trained professionals and it is applied to finished plastered walls, just as if you were going to have them papered or painted. Prices for Polished Plaster vary and areas smaller than 20m squared create higher meterage costs, but you can expect to pay between £70 and £150 per square meter, including VAT.
Polished Plaster can be subtle and seamless but can also be dramatic and really fantastic. It has a way of making any room in your house or building look unique and luxurious.
