Here’s an interesting technology from Spanish company Glass Decor – used to create trompe l’oeil glass mosaic bathroom tiles using photography.

The tiles apparently are hardy enough so they can be used to make both floors for showers or bathrooms, as well as walls.

The mosaic image could be created from a photograph of anything at all. Of course, it is not restricted to photography. It can be a sketch of something. An old masterpiece reproduction. The Bayeux Tapestry? Da Vinci’s Virgin of the Rocks?

Or it could be a two dimensional design of any sort. Or a simple gradiant tint, suggesting the light of a morning sky.

Of course there’s plenty of opportunity for this sort of design to fall within a genre of real kitsch, but under controlled conditions, this could look rather unique.
