Let’s talk about terrazzo! Anyone else obsessed with this beautiful and interesting pattern? Living in Italy, the home of Terrazzo, I see it everywhere around me and love the fact that the trend has done a comeback this year. In fact, it has been named one of the most popular interior design trends for 2018 according to Pinterest.

Terrazzo dates back to the Venetians during the 15th century. This traditional Italian flooring material was created as a low-cost solution used instead of the pricey marble flooring and consisted of marble, quartz, granite or glass chips set in concrete. Although it is a bold look, it has its versatility and the style goes with pretty much everything. The chips can either be small or large, you can find the pattern in any color you can imagine, creating endless design possibilities.
