COMPILED BY VISI

1. Apt X Huguet’s Terrazzo Furniture
Architecture studio Apt collaborated with tile manufacturer Huguet to create a terrazzo bench. The collaboration saw the combination of three new terrazzo types to create a bench, that if reproduced, would be entirely unique, made up of individual fragments that would otherwise have been discarded.
