Mo' Money, Mosaics The Most Modern of Ancient Luxuries is Back

By Carisha Swanson
October 5, 2018

Not every mosaic is this expensive or fantastical, of course. Depending on the makeup, they can run as low as $100 per square foot or less, but for the avid lover of this ancient art form, the cost and time it takes to receive your special delivery – four to six weeks on average – is well worth every penny. The only problem: A customized mosaic is just half complete when it arrives. It can be ruined by installers that haven’t worked with custom mosaics before and ignore the labeled installation diagram or use the wrong grout color (white is absolutely not universal). And this snafu is not fixable – it only comes down with a hammer, in pieces. Once company, Artaic, is pushing back against tradition by using computers and robots to create their mosaics at a fraction of the time and cost. Purists balk at the idea, but it does represent mass customization, a growing trend in the world of consumer access to personalized goods. Really, the choice is yours. Whatever you want, rest assured you’ll leave your mark for generations to come – whether they agree with your taste or not.
