BIO
Concrete Pig has been creating one-of-a-kind sculptural elements and functional art in the form of modern furniture design since 2012.
Based in Minneapolis, our architectural features have made their way to partners stretched through the greater Midwest—Minneapolis/St. Paul, Rochester, Eau Claire, Milwaukee and Chicago—and cities across the U.S.—from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Austin, Brooklyn just to name a few. Finding creative custom solutions to meet any commercial need, to fit any indoor or outdoor space. All the while continuing to innovate, testing new concrete mixes and applications, pushing the medium of concrete forward in unexpected ways.
With an eye on the past but a specific vision for the future, Concrete Pig stands for timeless design and artistry, a never-ending pursuit of perfection all the while embracing the imperfect beauty that manifests itself through the medium of concrete.
