Kubus Teka-teki Terazo

The recycled glass flecks in the terrazzo finish make each cube look slightly different, which I didn't expect from a puzzle. Took me a solid twenty minutes to get the first of the 240 configurations, and my kids keep stealing it off my desk.

I've been leaving it on my coffee table and guests always pick it up — the concrete texture feels great in the hand. Took me a while to find more than a couple of the 240 assemblies, but that's the fun part.

The recycled glass flecks catch the light differently on each of the seven pieces, which makes the terrazzo texture feel genuinely handmade. Took me a solid twenty minutes to get the cube back together the first time, and I'm still not sure I've found the same solution twice.
