MATERIAL MATTERS | One material, used a few different ways.⁠
⁠
This Miami residence carries terrazzo from the interior living spaces out to the infinity pool.⁠
⁠
Epoxy terrazzo is used inside, cement terrazzo continues outdoors, and select areas feature Scarpa Palladiana terrazzo with roughly 3,000 individual marble inserts.⁠
⁠
The interesting part is how the material changes with the space while still helping the interior and exterior feel connected.⁠
⁠
Architect | Kobi Karp⁠
Designer/Artist | Studio Sofield⁠
Terrazzo Contractor | Creative Terrazzo Systems⁠
Photographers | Kyle Calderbank, Custom Pool Systems⁠

⁠
📅 Sunday, September 27⁠
