3 Cheers for Terrazzo!

Terrazzo has been the recipient of incredible breakthroughs in technology. Using Epoxy as a base allows for brighter colors, a thinner base material, and the ability to add an array of various and unconventional aggregates.

The Terrazzo Dazzle

Poured terrazzo is one of the oldest forms of hard surface flooring.  It has certainly come along way from the time when Venetian workers would place discarded marble chips into a clay floor. Loved for its ability to create large, homogeneous spans,  terrazzo’s primary limitation used to be in the method of shaping the designs. …

Blending Stone with Wood
