Terrazzo might feel like a trend — we’re seeing it popping up everywhere at the moment (and we are NOT mad about it!). But this playful surface is anything but new. Many designers are choosing a more modern approach to terrazzo bathrooms. We’re talking bolder colours, oversized chips and unexpected applications, giving this retro material a fresh, joy-filled edge.
Terrazzo brings personality without overpowering a space. Proof that bathrooms can be practical and fun. Come check out this round up gallery of some of our fave terrazzo bathrooms we’ve featured on Style Curator (and a few newbies too!).

It doesn’t get more effortless than this. Super simple, very pared back… a bathroom that will never go out of style. Love it! Explore the full home tour here.
Natural calm
Looking for a bathroom that balances colour and calm? We’ve found it. Its soft colour palette and terrazzo feature marry perfectly with accents of black. Just lovely.
Glorious grey
While we find it hard to look past that spectacular round tub (isn’t it divine?!) another fave feature in this bathroom is that terrazzo flooring and half-height wall. There’s no way you could possibly call this grey terrazzo bathroom boring! Explore the full home tour here.
Perfectly peach
The peach flecks in this terrazzo bathroom floor are, in our personal opinion, perfection. Pulling in tones from the stone basin and adding contrast with the brushed bronze tapware, this bathroom is magic. You can explore the full room tour here.
Subtle floors
Using terrazzo in the bathroom doesn’t have to mean the terrazzo is the star. In this bathroom, peachy tiles are the main event, with subtle terrazzo flooring taking a backseat (and doing it beautifully).
Terrific terracotta
This bathroom holds a special place in our hearts. Because WOW, would you just LOOK at that magnificent terrazzo?! It is bold and brave and truly spectacular. You’ll definitely want to explore this full bathroom tour… trust us!
Bold and bright
Staying with the bold and colourful theme, who knew that orange could look so fab in a bathroom? We wouldn’t have believed it either, until we spied this space. The soft orange walls (and ceiling) pair perfectly with the orange flecks in the terrazzo floors and wet area. Gorge!
Blush pink beauty

Subtle style
This is a fabulous example of how good a modern terrazzo bathroom can look. Mixing multiple types of white tiles (a risk that totally paid off) allows the terrazzo countertop to really shine. Take a look through the full home here.
Muted grey magic
For a terrazzo bathrooms that feel timeless, it’s hard to go past grey terrazzo. Its subtle style allows for interest in the variety of chips, but bold enough to make a statement. Glorious!
Confetti vibes
This one just makes us think of a sprinkle party, don’t you agree?! This Straciatella terrazzo can only be described as super fun. We think this would look totally at home in a kids bathroom.
Textured tones
The colours in this bathroom have us swooning. The deep olive green walls are so calming and the rust coloured flecks in the terrazzo wall tiles create a playful, yet timeless bathroom design.
Feature wall, feature floor
Feature walls can sometimes be a risky gamble, but in this studio apartment bathroom from The Block 2020, it pays off in a big way.
Chunky chip
Allowing the beautiful chips to really shine, this shower makes a bold statement. The variety of size, shapes and colours in these chunky chips make for a truly unique bathroom space.
Soft and serene

Green goddess
It’s not often we see a colourful terrazzo bathroom in the shade of green. It packs a serious punch but we’re kinda obsessed with it.
Bold and black
This contemporary terrazzo bathroom is one for your Pintrest board. The tub alone is what first drew us to this space, but the drenching of dark terrazzo across the floors and walls ties it all together. Take a look around this black on black sleek home tour here.
Colourful craze
What’s better than 1 type of terrazzo in the bathroom? TWO, obviously! The main coloured terrazzo waterfalls down the wall, around the bath and down onto the floor. Tied in beautifully with an inverse terrazzo as the vanity top. It’s not for the faint-hearted but the outcome is pretty spectacular.
Farmhouse styling
Proof that terrazzo belongs in any style of home, and pared with any other tile, this home showcases terrazzo in a whole other light. A modern Australiana holiday retreat with floor tiles to die for, and yet the soft grey terrazzo wall tiles work in perfect harmony. Explore the full home tour here.
