Greetings!
 The hardest decision you or your clients will make when choosing a decorative finish for a concrete floor is what color scheme to use. Even though there are endless options to choose from, certain colors seem to rank as favorites, based on the viewer traffic we receive in The Concrete Network photo gallery of concrete floors. Below, we give you examples of some of the color schemes that are attracting the most interest. But don't let this unscientific popularity poll stop you from daring to be different. Using bolder colors and color combos will make concrete floors more distinctive and turn them into the focal point of a room.

Beautiful browns
Although they don't sound exciting, brown concrete floors are anything but boring, making them one of the most popular options for colored concrete floors. They are rich, warm and natural, and they blend beautifully with a multitude of design schemes and materials. See just how inviting and versatile brown concrete floors can be.

Gorgeous grays
Many people prefer to
enhance the natural beauty and character of concrete and keep it gray. Shades
can range from light neutrals to dark charcoals, making this chameleon-like
color suitable for many interior design schemes. See more stunning
examples:

Bold blues
A
lot of concrete floor owners like to sing the blues, using this vibrant hue to
make design statements ranging from calm and soothing to bright and bold. One
reason why this color may be so popular is that it's not widely available in
other types of flooring materials, and with concrete, the variations of blue are
unlimited. See more examples:
Sky blue floor

Color combos
The most stunning concrete floors use a kaleidoscope of colors to become the focal point of the room. These showpiece floors are ideal for those who want to express their personal tastes and be distinctive. The various fields of color can be defined by saw cuts, stencils, engraved patterns and other techniques. See many more examples in our photo gallery.
