Mosaic panel

The first mosaic panels were dated hundreds of years ago, however, the skill of laying out images from colored elements is evolving to this day. Earlier, for the creation of the master's panel used shells of sea shellfish, wild stone and porcelain beads, today designers use special sets of tiles, which are already in the factory selected according to color and pattern. However, some experts prefer to adhere to traditions and create amazing panels of chopped mosaic, glass and clay slices. Such works are considered exclusive and are much more expensive than factory sets.

Where to use the picture?

Typically, small tiles are used for decorating luxury restaurants, building facades and hotel halls. As for home use, the mosaic can be found in the bathroom, kitchen, corridor or on the floor in a large country house. Let's take a closer look at each use of the tile:

  1. Panel from the mosaic for the bathroom . It is the main color accent in the bathroom, so the rest of the tiles are made as neutral as possible ( blue , beige, white, gray). The image can be a marine theme, such as drawings of shells, dolphins, the underwater world. The big picture of flower buds and thematic drawings with people look pretty bold.
  2. Panel from mosaic to the kitchen . Here, fine tiles adorn the area between the working surface of the table and the bottom edge of the cabinet. As a basis, simple drawings in rural style, still lifes, vases with flowers are used. If desired, the wall can be decorated with an unobtrusive pattern that simply adds dynamics to the design of the room.
  3. Panel from the mosaic for the pool . The image under the transparent water surface looks very beautiful and mysterious, so designers try to find original drawings. The bottom of the pool can be decorated with baroque and oriental ornaments, images of fish and turtles. Some people prefer to focus on the tank itself, rather than the wall adjacent to it. It is decorated with plot images of a raging sea, a floating ship or a tropical island.
  4. Mosaic carpets . If you want to emphasize the luxury and respectability of your home, then you will have to taste the panel and mosaic on the floor. It perfectly replaces already bored parquet and does not require careful care. When installing tiles designers often use the principle of "rose". It consists in the fact that the ceramic tile is carved in a circle in a certain sequence. The panel "rozon" perfectly suits for a hall, a spacious foyer and a main entrance.

How to create a matrix mosaic panel?

The production of the panel begins with the selection and digitization of the picture, after which a scheme of the future picture is projected using computer programs. The selection of mosaic elements and the development of color solutions are carried out very carefully and methodically. Then chips of the correct form (rhombuses, squares) are added to the finished image. During the work on the panel the following methods are used:

The quality of the drawing also depends on the material of the tile used. So, the panel from a glass mosaic will possess magnificent color rendition and characteristic glossy shine.

The panel of marble mosaic, on the contrary, will be painted with natural muted colors.
