Terrazzo, which was initially developed in Italy, has been around for centuries, but because to industrial innovations, it gained significant appeal after the 1920s. A nostalgic reference to the decades and design revolutions that came after, when this gorgeous marble-chipped material continued to enliven all kinds of homes, terrazzo floors evoke the glitz of this era. Today, terrazzo is seeing a resurgence that doesn't appear to be slowing down.
