Length - 01:59 Award-winning designer, Fu-Tung Cheng, takes a look at the Teance Tea Shop in Berkeley, Calif. He designed this commercial space with decorative concrete as the centerpiece. Cheng explains the design elements he used in designing and building a display wall. In the background, there is integrally colored Japanese plaster with little flecks of wood chips in it that is troweled on smooth over drywall. Next to the plaster there are curved cold roll steel shelves that cantilever out from the wall. Cheng incorporated concrete here by curving the concrete countertop around the wall following the same arc. The countertop cantilevers out from the wall giving it a very sculptural quality. Underneath the concrete, bamboo cabinets float above the concrete floor helping to give the concrete countertop a weightless look.
