Floor As Your Canvas – USD Loma Hall

USD Loma Hall – San Diego, CA
The 3,275 square foot design University of San Diego Loma Hall features 3,275 square foot terrazzo design inspired by the architectural geometric patterns from the 16th century Spanish Renaissance era. Its mathematical precision and intricacy implement a harmonious balance of art and science. The geometric pattern is the focal point of the design, creating a clear hierarchy of spaces in contrast with the more subdued areas. Bands of color reinforce the delineation of space where walls are movable, and the floor pattern is reflected and enhanced by the intricate woodwork on the ceiling.

Floor As Your Canvas – Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center

Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center – Anaheim, CA

The Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center serves as a gateway to local attractions. The structure’s bold, contemporary design incorporates 35,000 square feet of epoxy terrazzo. Using only two color swatches along with a simple yet strategically placed floor design, the pattern handsomely addresses the architecture and is properly scaled for the magnitude of the space. The floors play their role to perfection, as a pedestal for the structure and directing the focus to the sky. The sheen on the floors is precisely gauged to soften the strong light.

Design Notes: The elegance of this one-of-a-kind 1,500-square-foot installation speaks for itself. The micro-quartzite aggregate supports the design and keeps the eye focused on the original chain-link pattern, staid but dynamic, contemporary yet classic in its choice of colors. The black elements, of the interwoven geometrical shapes, were formed using water-jet technology and the white sections were poured-in-place. The great thing about water-jet technology is that it allows for the creation of a monolithic floor with intricate patterns without expansion joints or metal strips for separating colors.
