It could be a bit odd to admit sometimes but most of us find various things really satisfying. And luckily, the Internet is this happy place where you can find anything and everything, regardless of what your idea of perfection is. Whether it's neatly planted trees casting shadows in a picturesque manner, 10 same-looking cute little doggos, a row of cups placed on the kitchen counter with amazing precision - you name it and the Internet will provide. But this time, it was a man working for a concrete company who decided to please the eyes of all the perfectionists of the online world. Scroll down to check out their work!

Concrete is the material to thank for most of our architecture miracles. It can be used in amounts that are both impressive and a tiny bit frightening. For example, the world's record for the largest concrete pour in a single project belongs to the Three Gorges Dam in Hubei Province, China and it required 16 million cubic meters of concrete over 17 years of construction.
Concrete is sometimes also called Portland cement concrete for its visual resemblance to Portland stone and is made of coarse and fluid ingredients in order to harden not instantly but over time. This allows for it to be worked into the most precise designs.
This is one of the most frequently used building materials and was first used as long ago as 700 BC. Ancient Nabataeans used concrete-like materials for house construction, flooring and to make underground water containers. Some of these structures can be still found today.
There is also concrete work found in Greece which dates back to 1400-1200 BC. At that time, people discovered they could add volcanic ash to it to improve the mix and allow it to set underwater.
It was also extensively used by the Romans and it's one of the reasons why so many of their structures survived to this day.
Jethro and Ellie Mae will need to wait a couple of days before they can use the ce-ment pond.
This is find extremely dissatisfying. The 'random' stone pattern suddenly meeting smooth (differently-random) edges? Arghhg.
Portland Cement is one ingredient found in modern concrete. The text states some resemblance to "portland stone" which has absolutely nothing to do with anything. Concrete consists of Portland Cement, and various sizes of aggregate in various proportions depending on the work.
As someone who understands the industry, I'm telling you this is absolutely top notch work. Hats off to these folks. To all the people bitching it's an ad: f**k off. Art posts are also ads if the person sells their art, and yes I do find this concrete work "satisfying" the way you might with a painting so in case you skipped over it the first time: f**k off. Also, why do you care if it's an ad? This affects you how?
How much did the company pay? Might be worth some consideration for some places around my town...
Most of these only look good because they are freshly made. Concrete ages really badly and a year in it'll look like a screenshot from some dystopian film.
These pictures showcase the beauty and artistry of concrete work, highlighting how it can be both functional and visually stunning. The intricate designs and attention to detail in the projects featured are truly impressive. Check out more from Concrete Contractor Clearwater
Advertising? Yes many artists have been using bored panda but really?
BP writers get paid to write ads here instead of articles? At least BP doesn’t repost incel fantasy fiction from 4chan. Oh, wait...
I see this kind of work all the time...good but not particularly special in any way
