Exposed Concrete: Formwork Texture is the Surface

A space with fair-faced concrete as the main surface. The walls show traces left by pouring: regularly arranged circular bolt holes, horizontal formwork joints, slight uneven cloud-like water marks and color variations. The surface is not painted or polished, only transparent protective treatment, with a fine sandy texture. The formwork divisions are designed to align with openings and floor divisions. When light shines obliquely, the bolt holes cast tiny shadows. Avoid: painting the concrete into a uniform gray coating, randomly arranging bolt hole positions, adding imitation fair-faced concrete veneers and wallpapers, or allowing cracks and repair marks to appear on the surface.

一個以清水混凝土為主要表面的空間。牆面呈現澆置留下的痕跡:規則排列的圓形螺栓孔、水平的模板接縫、輕微不勻的雲狀水痕與色差。表面沒有再塗裝或打磨,只有透明的防護處理,觸感是細砂質的。模板的分割經過設計,尺寸與開口、地坪的分割對齊。光斜射時,螺栓孔投下細小的陰影。避免:把混凝土塗成均勻的灰色塗料、隨意排列螺栓孔的位置、加入仿清水模的貼皮與壁紙、讓表面出現裂痕與修補的痕跡。
