I often find that when I fill my home with fun designs, it inspires me to live more creatively. And what's more whimsical than terrazzo — whether on the floor, in the kitchen, on furniture, inside or outside. But what is terrazzo? Put simply, terrazzo is either a cement or composite that consists of colored chips of marble, granite, glass, quartz, or other relevant materials.
And while it is a style that dominated in the 1920s, the technique actually dates back more than 500 years to Italy, where workers would salvage stone scraps, and repurpose them to make the most stunning designs.
