Spring is officially here and it is the perfect season to add colour and rejuvenate your walls and floors with mosaic tiles.
These small tiles add a fun and playful ambiance to your home by refreshing a dull and drab looking room with colourful designs and shapes.
Choose from a wide range of these delicate tiles in exciting materials. From glass mosaics in a rainbow of shimmering colours, real marble in either polished or tumbled finishes, pebbles embedded in glass mosaics for a more natural look and smooth metal for a sleek urban design.
Various surfaces in the home are ideal for a mosaic focus wall. Use mosaic tiles as a splashback in your kitchen, as a striking wall feature in your entrance area or as a colourful column in the bathroom.
The entrance area of your home is the perfect place to have an eye-catching mosaic pattern on the floor, either on the threshold before you enter the house, or inside the entrance hall. This will offer a gleaming welcome to guests.
Planning a mosaic design from scratch? Tile Africa offers some handy tips:
· Plan the design, according to scale, on paper first, and trace it onto the floor or wall surface
· For ideas on different patterns and colours, page through magazines. Fabric designs can also offer inspiration, from geometric patterns to curvy floral and leaf designs
· Play around with different colour and size combinations to find out what works best
· Use gold and silver sparingly. Even a small amount will create that glamour effect you are after
· Once you’ve started, step away from your work from time to time to view it from a distance. This will allow you to get a better idea of how your design is progressing and whether you are still on track to achieve the beautiful attention-grabbing feature you had planned
Be creative and use different colours, textures and patterns to impart your own personal style on your home’s floors and walls.
