Does modern concrete design match your property? 

When deciding what design you want to choose for your precious property, you will have to consider multi factors:

What design i want?

what design will go with the outside look of the house? 

What design is easy to maintain?

What color goes with your property?

Most importantly which design will increase the property value the most? as the outdoor out door walkway, stairs, walls, driveway, sidewalk or patio and backyard can up your property price by 15 – 25% 

So how is that, when you have in your backyard dead space and you turn it to useful place or when you have a space that is hard to reach and make it easy to get to by building stainable walkway or sidewalk. 

Make it look appealing and clean and now have any large cracks or puddle of waters or water slopping to the wrong direction 

 

So you want every area in your house is useful to have the full value and in top of that you want to add more value when you make it very pleasant elegant, appealing and classy

The pandemic drastically disrupted retail trends in 2020, accelerating growth for some categories while slowing down others. As more people spent time at home, outdoors with nature, and focused on personal protective equipment, retailers had to quickly pivot based on these trends and improve their digital infrastructure for a seamless customer experience. Retailers have remained resilient and determined, and we’re excited to see how they adapt to some of 2021’s biggest retail trends.

2021 Retail Trends

Dressing for Success

Unsurprisingly, apparel sales were down in 2020 as more people stayed at home. Clothing sales fell by 25% in the UK, while the US saw many retailers such as Neiman Marcus, J.C. Penney, and J. Crew filing for bankruptcy.

However, as populations become vaccinated, we will likely see a gradual shift of workers going back to the office and rising clothing sales.

Hybrid Work Attire

Transitioning back to the office doesn’t have to mean sacrificing comfort! Super soft and wrinkle-resistant, these shirts from Untuckit combine professional wear with casual comfort.

Revival of Heritage Brands

Moving away from fast fashion to focus on well-made pieces, fashion heritage brands such as Carhartt, Converse, and New Balance have seen a resurgence in interest from various market segments. Celebrities such as Rihanna and Kaia Gerber have been spotted wearing these brands, boosting the “cool” factor for these tried-and-true companies.
