TERRAZZO
Tonal vibrations, shifting between concrete and stone
A graphic reinterpretation of terrazzo flooring, to experiment with new approaches to planning and design.
Created in the 15th century in Venice as a way of re-using marble, granite and quartz chips, mixed together with cement to form a single compound reminiscent of an uneven mosaic, it was often used both for its durability and its ability to create a “design”.
The porcelain stoneware flooring can vary from fine to medium grain. The series is suitable for a variety of important architectural settings, both period and modern, offering novel, stimulating perspectives.
“Terrazzo” is one of the trends that has marked the last few years. It originated in the 15th century in Venice as an attractive way to use leftover pieces of marble, granite and quartz, which were mixed with cement to form a single compound similar to an irregular mosaic in appearance. It was widely used both for its durability and because it could be used to create patterns.
However, while the original terrazzo was composed of a mix of little fragments scattered in the cement, the terrazzo made today is a mix of slivers of larger sizes, less dense and with more surprising graphics. The terrazzo finish offers an alternative option to the popularity of marble, a material we’ve seen a huge amount of in recent years, when it’s been one of the most popular interior and design trends.
Terrazzo by Coem allows for a variety of applications and interesting colour combinations, making it an extremely versatile, eye-catching collection. Suitable for both residential and commercial settings, it blends attractively with both modern and traditional styles, bringing a unique touch to both.
