It's Concrete!

Nick Relampagos and Fu-Tung Cheng at the Natoma Street Loft during the Advanced Islands and Walls Seminar

How it all started.

I started by designing and remodeling kitchens and interior spaces. My craftsmanship, attention to design and detail spoke for itself and always received great compliments.

Needing to specialize in one area of remodeling and excel at that. I wanted to pick an area where I could use my design sense, knowledge of fabricating complex forms, kitchen construction, attention to detail and the ability to translate all this into a fine finished product.
I chose fabricating concrete because it gave me an opportunity to design and create exclusive statements for clients that want to set themselves apart from the others.

I attended the Cheng Concrete Exchange Countertop Essentials course along with the Advanced Countertop Design Training which is personally conducted by one of the country's premier innovators of concrete design, Fu-Tung Cheng. Assisted by Cheng-trained instructors, Fu-Tung leads this program and shares the principles of good concrete design, the techniques to implement them and the trade secrets of his proprietary, glass-like Geocrete™ finish.

I gained more of Fu-Tung's knowledge and insight by taking his Concrete Exchange Advanced Seminar in Design and Construction for Islands and Architectural Walls.

We also fabricate concrete designs using the Buddy Rhodes concrete mix system. With the insights of Buddy and his staff, I've found that I can create a totally seperate look and feel of concrete as seen in my projects in the Gallery.

We are now Authorized Buddy Rhodes Artisans.

What does all this mean? It's Concrete is the only fabricator in the Bay Area that is trained and continually works with Buddy Rhodes Studios and Cheng Concrete Exchange, the masters of concrete, to provide you the client with the best product and design you deserve.
