Wood

With wood, burnt cement leaves a room with a cozy and current look at the same time.

This is because wood is a timeless material and one that usually combines with many different elements. The wood itself, by the way, tends to warm the environment.

Burnt cement looks great with any wood tone , from the darkest to the lightest.

exposed bricks

Charming, the apparent bricks are a finish that was formerly seen in older buildings. 

However, nowadays, you can find this material in many homes – either after peeling the wall and getting to it or even using wallpaper that imitates this brick.

Both its rustic appearance, reddish in color, and in a white painting, which has become common, the exposed brick composes very well with the burnt cement.

Hydraulic tile

We even have the combination of burnt cement and hydraulic tile.

Due to the neutrality of the burnt cement and regardless of the cracks and natural stains it may present, this finish works well with the colors of the tiles.

You can apply them on the wall and leave the burnt cement on the floor, or vice versa. It all depends on your preferences and personality.

natural stones

Finally, we have natural stones. By themselves, they are characterized by an irregular and, obviously, very natural look. 

Together with the burnt cement, the mixture will be accurate in the decoration, as this finish can have different shades of gray and even colors when mixed with pigments.

Just choose a tone that best matches the chosen stone and that's it: the environment will be amazing.

The industrial style is the most popular when it comes to burnt cement, especially in decorations with metallic elements.

Such elements can be present in countless parts of the room, such as the furniture, the lighting and even the electrical (have you ever seen those apparent pipes around? That's exactly it).
