CASE STUDY INDEX
Client Need:
The owner of this planned community needed to create a high impact village and community center to be the "heart" for the surrounding community. Although they wanted to achieve a pleasing aesthetic, budget constraints did not allow for imprinted or even colored concrete.

Solution:
CHI's exclusive Sandscape Texture™, formliners, and sandblasting on uncolored concrete for the walls, flatwork and steps created different textures and the visual appeal of the hard surfaces.

Results:
Concrete is the design material used to create the pathways surrounding the Community Center, the elegant pool deck, decorative wall, and The Depot floor that together make the Village of Five Parks' Village and Community Center a truly unique and beautiful "heart" of the villages. The concrete walls include custom designed and fabricated formliners, a rustication grid pattern and selected areas of sandblasting. Concrete flatwork on sidewalks and the pool deck is highlighted by banding and panels of uncolored Sandscape Texture™ concrete. Cantilevered steps are installed at the changes in elevation and natural stone paving is incorporated into the concrete paving. Interior Micro-Topping® (concrete overlay) and staining of the concrete floor in The Depot kept the character of a train station of yesteryear.
