Malls and other luxury commercial facilities are all about aesthetics. From the design of the buildings to the interior décor, property owners leave nothing to chance when it comes to making these facilities appealing to customers. As a concrete contractor, you play a vital role in making your clients' vision to come to fruition, especially regarding concrete kerbing. Unbeknown to most facility managers, well-designed kerbs add a touch of class to the outdoors. Unfortunately, most kerbs look the same and boring; therefore, it is your duty as a concrete contractor to change this for your client. This article highlights trendy kerb designs that pop out and transform the aesthetics of any commercial facility.  

Radii Kerbs -- Traditionally, concrete contractors have relied on cutting down straight kerbs to make the curved edging. And while these work well, there is a lot of work involved in cutting and sizing the kerbs to get a perfect fit at the curves, and using straight kerbs to create curved edges often leads to wastage. Moreover, if you use several small kerbs to achieve a curve, the slightest mistake will stick out like a sore thumb. Therefore, rather than relying on straight kerbs, why not use radii kerbs? Radii kerbs are specially designed to achieve the perfect curve in kerbing edges. They are especially useful in large, commercial spaces that require numerous curved kerbing, primarily because installation is much less troublesome and much faster. The best part is that radii kerbs come in either concave or convex shapes,  which allows you to create any curve. 

Tumbled Kerbs -- Today, commercial facilities are pulling all the strings to give the outdoors an uplift. Concrete contractors are thus offering modern kerb designs with neat finishes that match the general contemporary style. Rather than going with the flow, you can opt for kerbstones that bring out a timeless feel and character. The kerbs are produced through a tumbling process which gives them a warm, antique finish. Tumbled kerbs stand out amidst other contemporary edging designs, making them perfect for unique commercial spaces. 

Exposed Kerbs -- While some commercial facilities prefer kerbs with artificial surface finish, others love kerbs with an exposed natural surface. Exposed kerbs are an excellent choice for facilities that have an earthy look because the exposed surface finish blends well while still retaining a traditional look. Moreover, since there is not much work necessary for the surface, kerbs with an exposed surface are inexpensive and can shorten project timelines significantly. Exposed kerbs are considered heavy-duty and are often the best choice for parking spaces.
