Materials

The material library

TERRA works from a broad supply network of natural stone and premium surfaces. Material is chosen for a piece, not the other way around — and stone always leads.

Natural stone samples in marble, travertine and quartzite

Families

Natural Stone

Natural Stone

The broad category the studio works in most: blocks and slabs selected for character rather than uniformity.

Marble

Marble

Veined, luminous and historically architectural. Reviewed slab by slab.

Quartzite

Quartzite

Dense, hard-wearing and often dramatic. Specified where a marble look is wanted with more resilience.

Travertine, Onyx & Limestone

Travertine, Onyx & Limestone

Warm, porous or translucent stones for sculptural pieces and statement tops.

Granite, Soapstone & Basalt

Granite, Soapstone & Basalt

Structural, consistent and dark-toned; suited to heavy-use desks and tables.

Advanced Surfaces

Advanced Surfaces

Engineered quartz, porcelain and sintered stone for controlled tone and slim profiles.

Wood & Metal — in support

Wood & Metal — in support

Walnut, oak, white oak and ash; brass, bronze and steel. Bases, drawers and details — never a piece on their own.
