One of the recent additions to our terrazzo range is the funky TE081. It has a cream base with large chunks of marble in strong colours including greens, oranges and yellows and smaller chippings in white and pink. It’s one of the more attention-grabbing terrazzo designs in our extensive range, ideal for customers who want to add some pizazz to their home or commercial premises.

For Kent-based residential clients Andrew and Francesca, it was the perfect option for their new kitchen space. The kitchen itself was to be neutral, so the opportunity to add a strong feature was there for the taking.

The project required 30mm thick polished and sealed terrazzo for a kitchen island of 3.2m by 1.2m cut precisely for a gas hob to be added. The island has a matching side panel attached to the top surface using a butt joint.

A separate sink worktop of 2.45m by 60cm features grooves carefully cut in at the Diespeker factory for water drainage. To complete the sink area, a splashback was added in the same terrazzo. The final touch was a terrazzo windowsill of 1.85m by 15cm on the side window of the kitchen.

The overall impression of the kitchen is a beautiful space, oozing personality as neutral meets dynamic chic head on.

Not long after Diespeker installed the terrazzo, Andrew dropped an email to MD John Krause saying: “Just a quick note to let you know we are over the moon with our new worktops!” Which is exactly what we like to hear!
