2024 DCC Award Winner

Texas Bankes Association, Texas Bomanite, Dallas, TX

First Place: Polished Concrete & Overlays, Under 5,000 SF

The design intent for Texas Bankers Association was to include seamless transitions throughout the entry all based on a tile that the architect loved for the elevator and bathroom floors. Texas Bomanite helped design a lobby floor and front entry that did just that through the installation of Bomanite Revealed and Bomanite Modena TG.

Over several months, many design meetings, and various samples, Texas Bomanite created a white Modena TG floor with #3-#5 Blanco Mexicano aggregates. They included 1/8" zinc divider strips to break up the floor and tie into the silver finishes throughout the lobby. The architect also wanted a seamless transition from the outside to the inside and Texas Bomanite added on a white Bomanite Revealed front entry with the same aggregates. This lobby has been the genesis of many projects that showcase a continuous flooring from the inside of the building to the outside of the building.

Texas Bomanite’s polish division performed all interior prep work, installation of zinc strips, and polishing of the Modena TG. Their concrete division performed the installation of the Modena TG and Revealed concrete, paying close attention that the large aggregates were tightly floated against all of the zinc strips, and against the exposed, curved concrete walls. The front entrance of the building is on a hill so creating and leveling the front steps and ADA ramp posed to be quite difficult. The clean and seal division performed the exterior prep work and exposing and sealing of the Revealed. Many members of Texas Bomanite were involved with this project and were able to work together to produce a beautiful product.
