We can’t underestimate the importance of maintaining our connection to the natural world in our daily lives. Many Mid Modern architects such as Frank Loyd Wright, understood the need to combine nature within his designs using Stone such as Terrazzo, Marble, and Granite, along with wood and other natural materials.

There is actually new research that supports this. In an article published in the Sun Sentinel, October 5, 2009, A University of Rochester study is highlighted that suggests communing with nature in the outdoors, as well as creating a sense of natural settings in our living spaces, lifts our spirits and helps us behave better.

Materials such as terrazzo tile and flooring lend an especially clean and earthy tone to our homes.

Four studies were conducted and in each, the finding was that the more people engaged in natural settings, the more they valued community and closeness to others. The more they focused on purely man made settings, the more they valued fame and wealth. Moreover, the researches suggest, surrounding ones’ self with natural elements may help people relax from the pressures of society and become more introspective.
