Trend: Terrazzo

Terrazzo is back! And not just on the floors of Italian apartments!

Terrazzo was created when resourceful Venetian mosaic workers discovered a way to reuse marble remnants. With odd-size chips, they began to build terraces around their living quarters.

A mixture of cement, marble aggregates and pigments, terrazzo can either be made into precast elements or poured on site insitu. Polished, honed or brushed terrazzo can be tailored to suit a wide range of tastes and interiors. It is an extremely durable and timeless which makes it perfect in a bathroom.

Whether its small or large format, monochrome or brightly coloured, terrazzo can enhance any bathing space and provide a stylish alternative to the marble-clad bathrooms we’ve seen for several years now.
