About 17 years ago I added a 600 sq.ft. studio to my home.  Poured a 
concrete slab using a limestone mix.  Then cut 'prox 1/4" wide by 1/2" deep 
grooves with a concrete saw on a 5'-ft square grid. The soft limestone 
prevented any chipping along edge of groove.  Stained the concrete, then 
used a contrasting grout to fill the gooves.

Had more fun convincing guests that it took a big crane to handle those 
large pieces of concrete and put them in place.  lol   It's held up very 
well and and has housed two or three GSD's all these years.  Messes are easy 
to clean up.  A couple of rugs and their crates with doors open give them 
plenty of room to sleep.
