DESIGNING WITH TERRAZZO

Since terrazzo is a fluid medium. It can conform to virtually any shape. Marble chips or other materials and the “matrix” to which the chips are added allow terrazzo to be colored and textured in an infinite number of variations. Here are a few of the ways terrazzo can make architect's and designer's dreams reality.
