No structural worries with microcement furniture

If you’re concerned about the weight of microcement furniture and the need to reinforce your home’s structure like with other materials, relax—it won’t be necessary.

Microcement coating is so thin—between 2 and 3 mm—that it adds virtually no weight to the original piece of furniture, so structural load won’t be an issue. You’ll have lightweight furniture that still exudes character.

Apply microcement to (almost) any material

Microcement is a decorative coating that adheres to all kinds of bases: marble, drywall, plaster… It can even be applied to various surfaces like table legs or shelf joints thanks to its strong adhesion. This means you can turn nearly anything you can imagine into microcement furniture.

Likewise, if the furniture of your dreams only exists in your head and you can’t find anything similar, you can create it from scratch and make custom microcement furniture. Who said it’s impossible?

Microcement furniture: luxurious décor for every budget

The fact that microcement can be pigmented in so many colors is undoubtedly one of its strengths as a decorative finish. This versatility makes microcement furniture perfect for any décor style.

Microcement furniture isn’t just a match for minimalist and rustic environments; it also fits perfectly in modern spaces or a kitchen with classic-style furniture and elements. The possibilities microcement offers for furniture are endless—take advantage of them!

A quick and clean DIY to create microcement furniture

While it might seem challenging, applying microcement to furniture is very easy if you have the right tools and materials. Once you start this quick do-it-yourself project, you won’t be able to stop covering all your furniture with microcement.

Creating the furniture of your dreams with microcement is easier than spending hours wandering around large stores searching unsuccessfully for something similar.

Now that you know what microcement furniture can do for your home, it’s time to get to work! To get you started, here are five microcement furniture ideas that will leave you speechless.

1- Microcement table for the dining room, bedroom, or terrace

Whether you want a dining table or a bedside table, microcement tables will grab all the attention and become the undisputed centerpiece of any space.

There are fully microcement tables, but you can also combine them with other materials to achieve your desired look—such as iron or wooden legs, or a glass top with microcement legs.

Thanks to their resistance and waterproof properties, microcement tables are perfect for any space, whether indoors or outdoors, no matter how you use them. You can place a microcement table on your terrace without worrying about rain.

2- Microcement countertop: a must for your kitchen

Replacing your kitchen countertop can be a daunting task, especially when faced with debris, permits, and endless quotes that never quite convince you. For a new countertop without all these headaches, opt for a microcement countertop.

With its smooth, waterproof finish and joint-free surface, it allows for easy and quick cleaning. Microcement countertops have become a standout element in kitchen design.

You’ll achieve a natural look that’s hard to replicate with other materials, and when paired with concrete, wood, or metal elements, your kitchen will reach the next level without breaking the bank.

3- Microcement sink: practical and sleek

Microcement’s popularity has grown over the years for coating floors and walls, and it has also made its way into bathrooms. Its 100% waterproof nature and easy cleaning make it ideal for this space.

In addition, the fantastic adhesion of microcement to all types of surfaces such as tiles, marble, plaster and an infinite number of materials, together with the rest of the advantages, have boosted the use of microcement in the manufacture of bathroom furniture such as the microcement washbasin.

4- Microcement shelf: minimalism at its best

Whether you want to organize your space or divide areas within a room, microcement shelves are the perfect choice. Their minimalist design and impeccable finish let you decorate them however you wish.

If you prefer not to display everything on your shelf, you can use baskets to separate and organize items while keeping them hidden.

Your microcement shelf will last a lifetime, bearing the weight of books and constantly changing decorative accessories without breaking a sweat.

5- Microcement fireplace: a visual masterpiece

If your living room fireplace looks more outdated than classic, it’s time to breathe new life into it and turn it into a modern, attractive microcement fireplace.

You can coat the exterior of your fireplace in a single color or use different shades to highlight its moldings or details. Pairing a microcement fireplace with a wooden top that doubles as a shelf is a fantastic idea.

Just remember to only apply microcement to the exterior of the fireplace, as it’s not fireproof despite being temperature-resistant.
