Terrazzo isn’t a new concept (in truth, the roots are traced back to the beginning of Greece); however, it’s certainly having a moment in design trends. It’s a popular flooring material and countertop due to its flexibility, ease of maintenance, and funky character.
What Is Terrazzo Tile?
Terrazzo tile can be described as a low-maintenance product that is a composite of different kinds of stone like granite, marble, quartz, glass, and many others. The mix is bonded by concrete or resin. Terrazzo countertops and floors were trendy in the 1920s, 1980s, and even today. Modern designers are beginning to see the return of terrazzo floors in homes and hospitality establishments.
