Features: Currently, approximately half of new buildings are made of concrete (it can be molded, it is durable, and it is economical). The designers' demand for designing unique environments also presents great opportunities and possibilities for the use of concrete. When it comes to reflecting the characteristics of concrete, there is no more fitting description than "flowing rock": it is solid and durable, it considers the diversity of design, it can be shaped into any form, and it combines creative and aesthetic protective and functional properties.
