Terrazzo: Trend or Timeless?

The Craze That Won’t Quit

It’s no secret that terrazzo has made a huge come back in the last few years. Terrazzo has been around for over 500 years, and since it’s origination, it has seen its share of ups and downs. Every time the terrazzo craze starts to fade, it finds a new way to wow us. We couldn’t have predicted the big way it would hit the design scene this year, but we’re glad to be a part of its journey through the decades. Here are a few of our favorite ways we’ve seen it used and styled recently.

Of course, if we’re talking terrazzo, we have to bring up Mandy Moore’s Pasadena home. There are quite a few terrazzo elements in her mid-century dream house, but we absolutely love this particular piece! Mandy, we like your style!

Oh my, how did this get in here? Well, since it is, we might as well talk about it! We recently created a fantastic terrazzo bar top for a local restaurant (if you want to see more pictures of it, click here!) It was so much fun to make, and the end product had us doing a happy dance! If you’ve got terrazzo fever, we’d love to help you out! Sinks, countertops, coffee tables, unique custom furniture, outdoor kitchens, we do it all!

In case you’re wondering if terrazzo is here to stay, we took a poll on our instagram and a wopping 68% of those polled agreed that terrazzo is timeless.
