Our Story
We are Kast. A British design brand exploring the possibilities of concrete through sculptural form, considered colour and skilled craftsmanship. From our design studio and factory in Nottinghamshire, we create distinctive pieces for contemporary interiors, designed and made in the UK and enjoyed around the world.
Our story began over two decades ago, when founder Tim Bayes first began exploring the potential of concrete in contemporary interiors. Drawn to its raw beauty and versatility, he saw an opportunity to transform a material traditionally associated with architecture and construction into something more expressive. Years of experimentation, research and refinement followed, laying the foundations for Kast and our distinctive approach to design and making.
Pioneering the use of coloured concrete in bathroom design, Kast helped redefine perceptions of the material, introducing a new world of possibilities in colour, form and finish. Today, our specialist expertise and commitment to original design have established Kast as a recognised name among architects, interior designers and design-conscious homeowners around the world.
