Bespoke Concrete Designs:
The Gumi Works Fabrication Process
From Concept to Custom Concrete Statement Pieces
Every Gumi Works commission starts with a spark—an idea, a space, a mood. Whether you are looking for a custom-made oval concrete dining table, a coloured concrete sink, or a bespoke outdoor kitchen feature, our process is collaborative and engineered for precision.
Specifically, we focus on the intersection of mechanics and design. In order to achieve structural integrity, we use 3D CAD modeling for every commission. Following this digital stage, the fabrication begins. Because of this precise approach, we can guarantee that your bespoke concrete furniture fits your space perfectly. Furthermore, our GFRC mix is reinforced with glass fibers for maximum durability.
Custom Concrete Fabrication: Step-by-Step
- Initial Brief: You share your ideas, reference images, or sketches for your bespoke furniture project.
- Design Proposal: We explore dimensions, concrete finishes, and architectural details, in order to understand forms, shapes, and textures.
- Quote & Timeline: Once the design is approved, we confirm the budget and production schedule accordingly .
- Artisan Making & Technical Finishing: Initially, I hand-cast your bespoke piece in the studio using high-performance KodiakPro Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC). Following this artisan fabrication, I meticulously protect the surface with ICT Fusion—a professional-grade, penetrating sealer. Because of this advanced sealing technology, your custom concrete remains both stain-resistant and weather-ready. Consequently, our surfaces are ideal for everything from high-traffic kitchen worktops to sculptural garden furniture.
Delivery & Aftercare: We arrange specialist delivery and provide a detailed concrete care guide to ensure your investment lasts a lifetime.
Handmade Concrete Furniture for Homes and Commercial Interiors
Each concrete piece is handmade to order in our North London workshop studio. We welcome custom commissions of all scales—from circular dining tables to sharp-edged fireplace surrounds and sculptural garden furniture.
We support architects, interior designers, and homeowners through every stage:
- Design Development: From early concept sketches to technical CAD drawings.
- 3D Modelling & CGI Visuals: Helping you visualize the bespoke concrete piece in its final environment.
- Colour & Finish Consultation: Matching your bespoke concrete to your specific interior or exterior palette.
- Unique Geometric Shapes: Creating rectangular, round, or freeform concrete tabletops, basins, and architectural features.
Technical Integration: Precision cutouts for sinks, taps, plinth recesses, or cable management.
Virtual Prototypes & Real-Time Visualisation
Additionally, for complex architectural commissions, colour & finish texture variations on concrete dining tables, outdoor living space in a landscape projects, -we offer advanced 3D visualisations. Specifically, we collaborate with RP-Visuals to provide real-time digital renderings of your bespoke concrete furniture in situ. Because of this partnership, our clients can experience the scale, texture, and light interaction of a piece before the first mould is built. Consequently, this ensures absolute precision from the digital studio to the physical site.
