Ronald Reagan National Airport, Washington, DC - NTMA Job of the Year

From a design architects perspective we were very pleased with the overall craftsmanship and quality of the poured terrazzo floors by David Allen Company at the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Even though the scope of the floor finish was extensive and the pattern complex, David Allen Company was quite successful in fulfilling our design intentions.

Miami International Airport - South Terminal, Miami, FL

Norie Sato, Seattle, WA, Designer

Terrazzo was selected for Miami International after a comprehensive study during the design phase. It investigated almost every type of flooring and included interviews with maintenance and operations directors of airports in the U.S. and abroad. It concluded that a smooth, seamless, hard surface was the best floor for public areas of todays airport. Terrazzo was the number one choice to meet that criteria.

Based upon the level of performance David Allen Company has exhibited here at the Miami South Terminal, I will recommend your company for the work soon to begin at the North Terminal. The high level of technical expertise, along with financial strength, is in my experience, at the top of the tile and terrazzo industry.

Charles Boney Jr., FAIA, chaired a research and development committee for the AIA on school facilities materials. In a recent interview he stated...

We would all like to use terrazzo because we know it will be there and look good for the life of the building and it is low maintenance. Studies have shown, if you base your floor selection on life-cycle cost, Terrazzo is half or less the cost of VCT or carpet! Charles Boney Jr., FAIA
