May 3, 2020

Terrazzo – Terrazzo is making a major comeback in 2019! Although this trend may not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of a design trend, terrazzo these days is made with chips of marble, quartz, granite, or even glass set into a matrix of concrete or epoxy resin. This variety means that this material commonly seen on tiles is now making its way into furniture, like side tables, and providing inspiration for accessories such as planters and rugs. [contact-form-7 id=”16410″ title=”Moodboard Trends 2019 Terrazzo”] Originating in Italy over 500 years ago, the composite material of marble chippings set into cement was created as a way to reuse the scrapped rock.

To help you bring the trend into your home, Best Design Books selected 3 terrazzo products that will add the…
