Classical mosaic is made of flat small tiles of square or rectangular shape. All the seams between the "chips" are rubbed with a special tool, resulting in a smooth smooth surface. However, modern manufacturers decided to surprise their customers with an original volumetric glass mosaic that gives the wall a pleasant streamlined texture. The average thickness of the tile is 10 mm, but the center thickness can reach 15 mm. Due to such differences, a "swelling" effect is created due to which the mosaic resembles a small bubble. With the combination of many tiles, the wall acquires an interesting texture and becomes a striking design complement to the premises.
Properties of volumetric mosaic
As a rule, glass mosaic tiles are used to decorate presentable restaurants, apartments, nightclubs and bars. This is due to the fact that the price of the tile is quite high due to the technologically complex manufacturing process and limited production volumes. However, due to unusual shapes and deep saturated shades, it becomes the main decoration of any interior. In comparison with other finishing materials, the texture mosaic has the following advantages:
- easy to fit;
- does not fade;
- is joined without forming thick, ugly stitches;
- It can be used to decorate rooms with high humidity;
- can combine elements of glass, natural stone and metal;
- Many products are made by hand, which is an indicator of exclusivity.
Modern manufacturers offer a mosaic in the form of stems of bamboo, stars and round convex elements. Very impressive look options with frosted and glossy glass. The main world brands for the production of bulk tiles are Imex-Decor, Liya Mosaic, Alizia, Alma and Trend and Luxmosaic. Artistic execution is famous for the Australian volumetric mosaic of the brand Everstone.
