Interesting Reading: "Mosaics: Putting the Pieces Together" by Zoe Voigt

Sure, you've specified mosaics on plenty of your projects, but do you really know your mosaics???

If you can't think of the meanings for terms such as "Tesserae, Sectile and Cosmatesque", take a look at this article published in the CTDA's "Tile Dealer" magazine.  Its written by Zoe Voigt for those looking for a more complete understanding of the oftentimes Byzantine world of mosaics.


While you are at it, check out this device, produced by a "robotic engineer" near Portland, OR.















It's a high-speed, automated mosaic mounting machine and it might change the way you think about custom mosaics, if not make them faster a more affordable...

Didn't someone say "build it and they will come"?

BTW, the company is called 3Score, Inc. and the engineer is Paul Hodge, Sr.
