Mosaic by use
Elevated elegance: mosaic as a complete decorative expression
In the world of interior design, few materials offer the expressive power of mosaic. More than a simple covering, mosaic is a medium of light, texture, and rhythm. When used across both walls and floors, it creates a visual language that unifies a space, enriching it with character, depth, and meaning. Mosaic becomes a surface that speaks—of materials, craftsmanship, and a refined aesthetic sensibility.
Choosing mosaic for floor and wall applications is an intentional and impactful design decision. It appeals to those who value continuity, craftsmanship, and balance. Whether applied in a minimalist bathroom, a designer kitchen, a walk-in shower, or a striking hallway, mosaic asserts itself with elegance and quiet strength.
At Sygma Group, every mosaic collection is designed to unleash creativity. Natural stone, glass, ceramic, metal, or mother-of-pearl—each material tells a different story. The wide variety of finishes, colors, and patterns allows for seamless or contrasted compositions, bringing life and personality to any room. In this way, mosaic becomes more than a surface finish—it becomes the very skin of the architecture.

Mosaic for floor
Technical performance: what matters when choosing a mosaic for the floor
Choosing a mosaic for the floor is not just about visual appeal. A floor covering must meet demanding technical requirements. From mechanical stress to humidity and slip-resistance, floor mosaics must be selected according to performance first, aesthetics second.
The first consideration is wear and impact resistance. Unlike wall tiles, flooring needs to withstand regular foot traffic, water, dropped objects and cleaning agents. That’s why materials like porcelain stoneware or natural stone are preferred for floor applications. These materials are known for their density, low porosity and high mechanical strength.
The second essential criterion is slip resistance, especially in wet zones like bathrooms or walk-in showers. Mosaic is particularly well-suited for these environments because of its small format and high joint density, which naturally provides better grip.
Finally, the mosaic must be compatible with waterproofing systems. The substrate must be properly prepared with suitable adhesives and waterproof grouts, preferably epoxy-based, for long-lasting protection in humid environments.

Wall Mosaic
Technical considerations when choosing mosaic for wall applications
Mosaic tiles are a highly versatile and decorative solution for vertical surfaces, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and wet areas. Unlike floor tiles, wall mosaics are not exposed to high mechanical loads, but they must still meet important technical criteria related to moisture, adhesion, weight, and compatibility with the substrate.
First, the wall surface must be clean, level, dry, and structurally sound. In bathrooms or areas subject to moisture, a proper waterproofing system is essential before installation. This can include liquid membranes or waterproof boards compliant with industry standards.
The type of adhesive depends on the tile material and setting. For dry, interior walls, a ready-mixed adhesive may be suitable. In wet zones, it's crucial to use a flexible cement-based adhesive (C2 classification or higher) for strong, long-lasting bonds.
Lastly, grouting plays both a technical and aesthetic role. For wet areas, we recommend water-repellent or epoxy-based grout to prevent moisture infiltration, stains, and mould. Grout joints are typically between 2 and 3 mm, depending on the mosaic format and pattern.
Mosaic floor and wall tiles: visual continuity and architectural rhythm
One of the mosaic’s most compelling strengths lies in its ability to create continuity between vertical and horizontal surfaces. By repeating the same pattern or color palette across the floor and walls, a space gains fluidity and coherence. The eye follows the layout without interruption, reinforcing a sense of balance and order.
In smaller rooms like bathrooms or powder rooms, mosaic can visually expand the space. A continuous layout in travertine or marble—extending from the floor to the walls—creates a soft, sculpted effect. Neutral tones like beige, taupe, and pearl gray absorb and reflect light gently, contributing to a calm, almost spa-like atmosphere.
In more modern or industrial interiors, metallic or glass mosaics add a dynamic edge. Laid across entrance walls and floors, or in open-plan kitchens and lounges, they reflect natural and artificial light in shifting ways, lending a cinematic quality to the space. Format choice—whether square, hexagonal, or rectangular—sets the visual tempo, while finishes such as glossy, matte, or satin modulate how light is perceived.
The result is an environment in dialogue with itself—where every surface contributes to a cohesive and intentional design narrative.
Bathroom and walk-in shower: tactile comfort and immersive style
The bathroom is a sanctuary of daily ritual—a space of quiet and care. It’s also where mosaic reveals its full sensory potential. Materials take on a new dimension when touched: the softness of honed stone, the coolness of glass, the grain of textured ceramics. Light and moisture transform these surfaces into living elements that change throughout the day.
Mosaic is particularly well-suited for walk-in showers. Its small format and numerous joints provide excellent grip underfoot while adapting perfectly to the necessary slopes and contours. But functionality does not exclude beauty. A floor clad in natural pebbles or rough-cut quartzite evokes the tactile luxury of a spa. Opalescent glass tiles shimmer under spotlights, creating depth and movement. Satin ceramic mosaics offer a soft, enveloping presence, ideal for more minimal spaces.
Contrasts are welcomed. A high-gloss black mosaic floor with matte white walls; concrete-effect ceramic walls paired with a geometric mosaic floor; or a feature wall in luminous glass behind a sleek basin—each combination defines zones and creates visual interest. Mosaic allows for endless permutations in both mood and materiality.
Details matter. A niche in the shower lined with iridescent tiles, a mirror framed in metallic mosaic, or a floor border of contrasting color all add subtle sophistication. The bathroom becomes not just a functional space, but a place of design, intention, and sensory pleasure.
Mosaic in kitchens: durability meets decorative flair
The kitchen is where mosaic excels as both a functional and aesthetic element. Its durability makes it ideal for demanding environments: resistant to heat, humidity, splashes, and detergents. But beyond its practical benefits, mosaic introduces color, texture, and pattern into one of the most frequented rooms of the house.
Wall mosaics in the kitchen—especially as backsplashes—are true focal points. Whether composed of colored glass, mother-of-pearl, or enamelled ceramic, they bring personality and vibrancy to the space. The variety of layouts—herringbone, stacked, chevron, or mixed formats—offers endless design potential. Under LED lighting, even the smallest backsplash becomes a luminous composition.
On the floor, mosaic helps define zones: around an island, beneath a dining table, or along a hallway transition. Mosaic inserts can resemble decorative rugs in ceramic or stone, or echo wall finishes to create continuity. Finishes range from wood-effect porcelain to concrete-look tiles or natural stone, allowing for personalized contrasts or tonal harmony.
Another advantage of mosaic in kitchens is its versatility with other finishes. It pairs easily with parquet flooring, marble countertops, lacquered cabinets, or stainless steel appliances. Colored grouts provide additional design flexibility, highlighting or blending the joints depending on the desired visual impact.
Mosaic in the kitchen is both utilitarian and elegant—a surface that works hard while contributing to the visual language of the space.
Matter and light: designing immersive spaces with mosaic
Using mosaic on both floors and walls means designing with a holistic mindset. It means shaping light, rhythm, and spatial experience through material choices. Every tile, every joint, every surface becomes part of the design narrative. Mosaic is not decorative in a superficial sense—it is integral to how space is perceived and inhabited.
Its modularity allows it to follow curves, wrap around columns, line recessed shelving, or highlight architectural details. It is equally at home in large open-plan rooms and compact areas. In fluid spaces, it can subtly define functions: a vertical strip on the wall and floor to mark an entryway, a tonal mosaic rug to separate a kitchen from a dining area, or a frame to distinguish a vanity zone.
Uniformity is an option—but not a rule. Mosaic thrives in contrast. Glossy against matte, dark against light, smooth next to rough—these material tensions add richness and dynamism to interiors. A single wall of shimmering glass mosaics can elevate an entire bathroom. A matte black mosaic floor can anchor a white minimalist kitchen.
Lighting plays a key role. Depending on the material, mosaic can capture, diffuse, or reflect light in dramatic ways. Glass tiles refract, stone absorbs, ceramic softly scatters. When used thoughtfully, mosaic becomes a choreographer of light, animating the space through changing conditions.
Ultimately, mosaic offers more than style—it offers a language. A way of composing with color, texture, proportion, and rhythm. A way of thinking space not just as volume, but as emotion, sensation, and atmosphere.
