Mosaics Make a Design Deservingly Unique
Mosaics are traditionally designs consisting of small pieces of coloured stone or glass fitted together. The art form is centuries old, but the resurgence and interest in mosaic art is a very recent trend.
Used on floors and walls, indoors and outdoors, mosaics are a very durable and decorative way of giving life and individuality to a project.
Mosaic tiles are used to provide contrast to larger expanses of floor or wall with compatible colour.
Mosaics can be laid in plain colour as border strips or in intricate patterns depending on the desired effect. Mosaics are wonderfully effective in personalizing a floor, wall or outdoor area to create a style not able to be repeated elsewhere.
Mosaics - An Ancient Artform
Mosaics are an ancient artform that provides building projects with individuality in a world of increasing sameness.
Hagia Sophia in Istanbul (see picture below), is adorned by mosaics made from stone, glass, silver and gold. The former church was built in 532AD and is one of the truly great buildings of the world remarkably it is still standing and hundreds of thousands of visitors each year admire its architecture and art..
Mosaics appear in a number of wonderful Sydney buildings such as the mosaic floors of the State Theatre and the crypt at St Mary's Cathedral.
Mosaics Add Magic Even in Simple Designs
Mosaic art does is not always grand in its simplest form it can invigorate stone floors, walls and stairs with borders and medallions using matching stone of different colours, angles and sizes.
Stone mosaics can be ordered in one of many netted patterns off the shelf; alternatively they could be crafted by a local artist with a theme consistent with buildings environment and purpose.
Information on mosaic art can be obtained from the Mosaic Association of Australia. Mosaic tiles in natural stone are available from Bellstone & Slate Pty Ltd.
