John Meade Park
The Art of Concrete created a stream-like “splash pad” for John Meade Park and Alan Hutto Memorial Commons in the City of Cherry Hills Village, Colorado.
Not slippery when wet
Sand finish concrete in Colorado is an elegant and a safe surface. The surface provides excellent traction yet is comfortable on bare feet, making it an ideal solution for this “river bed” at John Meade Park. The multi-step process essentially pre-ages the concrete to deliver a more durable surface that is also less susceptible to climate changes than a traditional broom finish. In addition, slightly adjusting the integral color can change the warmth of the concrete as well to coordinate with adjacent surfaces.
