Beautiful and Innovative New Terrazzo Tiles
Traditionally, Terrazzo dates back to ancient Egypt but the material we know today is developed globally as a low-cost flooring option. When marble was at the forefront of design the Italians poured their leftover chippings into cement and left it to set, creating a low maintenance material for pavements and other high traffic areas. Today we have a new appreciation for the colour, texture and patterns formed by Terrazzo. This unique look is full of character and will create a focal point in any space. At Tile Space we have both real concrete and porcelain replicas so there's something for every budget with our Save, Spend and Splurge options.
Save with Affogato Terrazzo look - from $59.50 per square metre
Affogato draws inspiration from Ceppo di Gre, a unique type of pressed stone found near Lake Iseo, Italy. The main aesthetic feature of Ceppo di Gre is its harmonious combination of grey and white chunks which give a stunning natural yet decorative feel to any space. Available in both Matt and Grip finishes, the Affogato range is a great choice for creating indoor/outdoor flow, ideal for home-owners wanting to achieve the look of Terrazzo without the high price tag. A glazed porcelain tile suitable for commercial grade floor and walls.
