Happy !

This Palladiana Terrazzo installation can be found at Rock Venture's central hub off Woodward, in Detroit.

Terrazzo became widespread during the 16th century, thanks to the Italian Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio! He is one of the most influential figures in Western architecture.

What makes Palladiana, Palladiana? Traditional terrazzo uses "smaller" aggregates - typically ranging from 1/16" to 3/8" in diameter. With Palladiana terrazzo, the size of aggregates can range from nearly 1" to 12" in diameter (and, in theory, can be even larger than that!)

Palladiana terrazzo installations tend to be more time-consuming than traditional because each of the large aggregate pieces set in place by hand, with the epoxy or terrazzo mix poured around it afterwards.

Is it flooring or is it art?!

It's ! Today we're featuring the terrazzo we installed in Birmingham at the Daxton Hotel.

One of the unique aspects of this terrazzo job is the use of brass divider strips, which provide stark contrast to the black terrazzo.

In most (industrial) terrazzo installations, divider strips, expansion joints, etc., are chosen with the goal of creating a "seamless" look.

You'll notice, here, that the divider strips compliment the metal railing along with the art in the background. They were likely chosen for how they accentuate the floor, not how they blend into it!

We'd have to say the terrazzo is flooring AND it's art!

Completed in 2021 for Clark Construction Company.

- Black is one of the two hardest colors of terrazzo to finish.

It's ☝ Featuring this daunting, 4" x 10" gauged porcelain tile panel installation at the Detroit Pistons Performance Center. 🏀

📏 These panels were cut down from their original 5" x 10" size. At 6mm thick, this material weighs 2.88 lbs a SF.... which is 115.2 lbs per panel that we installed... and that's without any mortar!

📏 According to the American National Standards Institute, any piece of tile with one side measuring 15" or greater is considered "large profile."

📏 Large profile tile is chosen by owners and designers for its clean, minimalistic look (think, less grout lines).

⏰ To emphasize how much design tastes have changed: in 1999/2000 we were installing 2' by 2' tile at the Detroit Metro Airport, and that was on the cutting-edge of what was considered "large."

📏 Designers would say advanced manufacturing technology and processes are to “thank,” installers might say to “blame” for these new design possibilities and trends. Where do you think we'll be in another 20 years? 🤔

Panels supplied by Dwyer Marble & Stone Supply and installed by our amazing crew, Eric M., Tony Z., Noah G., and Ravon B. 🏋️

Can you guess which Big 10 Campus this beautiful mosaic calls home?

Here are some hints:

📗The building where you can find this mosaic was built in 1857, and is considered the oldest standing building on campus.

📗This building serves as the official residence for the president of the university.

📗The iconic Beaumont Tower is depicted by the hand-crafted, Detroit-based tile.

This mosaic resides in the historic Alice B. Cowles house, located at ......

🟢⚪Michigan State University! ⚪🟢

Foreman Eric Manzaroli expertly installed this mosaic as a part of our Cowles House renovation work for The Christman Company in 2020. Eric has been with us for ✨15 ✨ years this August. We are thankful for his hard work, thoughtfulness, and leadership in the field!
