Terrazzo

Additional storage facility ups the ante

A potential concern for projects requiring natural and manufactured stone is always going to be stock availability. Marble, granite and terrazzo are all luxury materials and few UK businesses have the capacity or space to keep vast quantities on site. Over the past decade, Diespeker has cultivated a reputation as a comprehensive stockist, with the choice of stone kept stored on the premises ever expanding. We even took on a […]

Return to the rockface

Several years ago we were asked to create a piece with an unusual edge, so we invested in a special machine that could achieve the look required. We undertook several projects but only recently has the edge, called rockface, resurfaced. Rockface edging has a unique look, unfinished and rough. It works to the strengths of the stone, showing patterns and veins usually hidden under the surface. This is a feature

Phenomenal fluted features are trending!

The clean, polished surface of terrazzo is something that we are very familiar with at Diespeker. Many of our projects require a beautiful, simplistic finish. However, there are other ways to play with terrazzo, from bending it (one of our areas of expertise) to creating a fluted design. Diespeker has been creating fluted terrazzo surfaces for some years and we have worked on some superb projects. Recently there’s been a

The project was for a client in Ipswich, Suffolk, who wanted the kitchen in their Victorian town house completely revamped. The brief was for something contemporary that would still sit well with the design of the house. Initially the idea was for a smart Shaker style kitchen, but as the

Opening up for Open House

Although Diespeker frequently welcomes people to our South London premises to view products and discuss their projects, we haven’t been in the habit of offering tours – until now. It all came about when Diespeker was contacted by Mark at Kaymet, another business local to the Old Kent Road area, regarding the launch of a book we’ve been involved with (Made in London, more on that soon). Mark also mentioned

Tottenham terrazzo

You don’t have to be a football fan to appreciate terrazzo – but if you are, you might like the footie connection with one of our limited edition designs. Tottenham Hotspur was founded in 1882 (when Diespeker was celebrating its first birthday), and the club had always played their matches at White Hart Lane. Spurs decided way back in 2007 that they needed to upgrade the stadium. The project wasn’t
