Terrazzo heaven

Updated: May 24, 2022

I wrote about the origins of terrazzo and shared some cool (as well as extreme) examples of using it in bathrooms, so today's post is all about terrazzo in living and commercial spaces.

How can you use terrazzo at home

If you like the effect of terrazzo for your floor, there are two ways to incorporate it: it can either be poured in situ or you can use terrazzo effect tiles. There are so many colour ways to choose from or you can specify a colour of choice for your project.

You can also have furniture like tables and table tops made of terrazzo and then of course you have the accessories: plant pots, mugs.

Not sure if this one is a render or not, but it looks like a Parisian apartment and it is utterly beautiful. Via BEHANCE.
