Mosaic floors - a true decoration of any room

Curiously, this kind of floor decor does not go out of fashion for many centuries. Today, extremely beautiful mosaic floors can be found in various parts of the world.

When composing mosaic canvases, the main roleplays the structure of the stone, its natural beauty, decoration and uniqueness of each fragment. Each grade of marble has its own unique pattern. In addition, this mineral is famous for its many shades and colors. Most often there are dark colors: dark gray, brown, burgundy. Also willingly masters use pastel shades of marble: white, light pink, rich beige or pale wine. The mosaic floors of the mineral of light colors, tinted with contrasting colors, look like real works of art. Often, mosaic is used in combination with a tile made of natural or artificial stone. It should be noted that even with a long operation of such a floor, the picture on it will not fade, and the colors will remain as bright and saturated. And this applies to any marble covering, whether it's the floor in a mansion or office.

According to the style of performance, the mosaic is divided into two types:artistic and decorative. The first kind involves more laborious work. Most often it is performed on an individual project and is a real work of art. In turn, the artistic mosaic of the assembly technique is divided into Florentine and Roman. Mosaic floors, belonging to the first type, are made of whole pieces of mineral, which form one or another piece of the canvas. The Roman version is formed from small parts of the stone, which are laid by hand.

Mosaic decorative is more simple.This style is applicable when creating large panels, in which now and then there are repetitive fragments. Today, decorative mosaic floors enjoy the greatest demand among the population due to their affordable cost.

Recently, along with traditionalvariants of creation of a mosaic there was a new way: machine technics water-jet. Fragments of the panel are sharpened on special programmable machines, so the name of the new technology sounds like "waterjet cutting". The smooth and clean cut of the stone is formed with the help of water and abrasive, striking a piece of marble with high pressure and speed.

It is worth noting that the mosaic of the material obtained with this technology, in its qualities is most similar to industrial polymer floors. And the ideal

joining elements of the panel and high-precision cutting makes it possible to create a drawing of any complexity.

Еще один вариант украшения дома - мозаичные полы from marble chips. This material is obtained as a result of crushing waste from mineral grinding. Perform such floors from monolithic concrete, adding to it marble chips. After completion of work and complete drying, the surface is thoroughly ground, which makes it resistant to abrasion and sunlight. Making such a mosaic is much cheaper than from solid stone, and the variety of colors and granularity of the mineral gives the coating an effective look.
