Materia Viva Mosaico

Timeless Elegance, Inspired by the Art of Mosaic

Materia Viva Mosaico is a premium lime-based decorative plaster inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional mosaic art and the rich architectural heritage of Italy and the Mediterranean. Crafted from a refined blend of hydraulic lime, aerial lime, selected mineral aggregates, and polychrome stone fragments, it creates sophisticated textured surfaces with natural depth, vibrant character, and understated elegance.

Its distinctive composition incorporates carefully selected multicolored stone fragments that introduce subtle reflections and beautiful variations in color and texture. Embedded within the mineral plaster, these irregular fragments interact naturally with light, creating a dynamic surface with delicate luminosity, rich dimension, and a unique handcrafted character.

Rooted in the centuries-old tradition of Italian mosaic craftsmanship, Materia Viva Mosaico reinterprets the beauty of decorative stone through a contemporary approach to architectural design. Its harmonious combination of natural minerals and colorful aggregates brings movement, depth, and artistic expression to interior surfaces.

Ideal for contemporary and traditional interiors, Materia Viva Mosaico transforms walls into refined architectural features that celebrate the beauty of natural stone and the artistry of Italian craftsmanship.

With its distinctive stone fragments, subtle luminous reflections, and authentic mineral character, Materia Viva Mosaico brings together Mediterranean heritage, artistic tradition, and contemporary sophistication.

To get started placing your order, please follow these simple steps to customize your order:

1. Quantity: First, select the amount of material you need. (Please refer to the "Yield" above to determine how much product you will need. Note that this is based on an average yield. Your yield may vary depending on substrate, application method and/or desired finish.)

2. Color Level (Tint Cost): This is where you'll choose the intensity of your desired color. Please refer to our Color Guide image located on the image carousel for each product. This guide shows the different levels of color darkness, from lightest to darkest.
Important Notes:
   * Carefully compare the colors in the guide to the overall darkness you envision for your final product.
   * The darker the color level you select, the higher the tint cost will be, as it requires more pigment.
   * Sample size does not need a tint level since all tint costs are included for sample material. 

 3. Specific Paint Color Reference: In the text field provided, please enter the exact paint color reference you desire. This could be a brand name and color code (e.g., "Sherwin-Williams SW 7008 Alabaster," "Benjamin Moore 2125-40 Gray Owl"). This ensures we mix the precise color you want.
Important Notes:
* The Color Guide image is a visual representation of color levels. Actual colors may vary slightly due to monitor settings and printing variations.
* By accurately comparing your desired color darkness to the Color Guide, you'll select the correct color level and tint cost.
* Providing the correct paint color reference is critical to receiving the correct color.
* You will be notified if any changes to your order are required.
