What is a Photo Mosaic?

A mosaic is an ornament made by assembling small pieces. Small colorful glass pieces or stones have proven effective for this. This type of art has been known and loved since ancient times. The technique was often used for buildings back then, and the variety of materials, such as wood, metal, and stone, offered many design possibilities. Not only the materials but also the technique itself makes this type of artwork so unique and interesting.

The personalized mosaic picture – a picture made of pictures – is also known and loved today. Not only because it provides a quick and easy gift idea, but because such a photo mosaic is personal and filled with emotions and memories.

But what exactly is behind the modern photo mosaic? Here too, a main image is made up of many small pieces. However, the "small pieces" are actual photos that create the main image. The main image can be a face, for example, and the many small photos can be chosen to match the person. This way, you capture the most beautiful memories in a single picture. It's a picture made of pictures – a unique and individual mosaic picture.

The special effect is achieved through the various colors and the arrangement of the small pictures, which are assembled into a large single image. The materials of the base provide additional impact. These can be a poster, an Alu-Dibond, acrylic glass, or canvas. The simpler the motif of the target image, the better the effect. The more small pictures or photos you choose, the less likely it is that motifs will repeat.

These mosaic pictures look especially impressive when they're large. Just think of the stone mosaic pictures from ancient times. The target image must fit well into the room. This means if the room is small, the picture shouldn't be too large, or it will feel overwhelming. However, if the room is quite big, a very large mosaic is ideal. The entire artwork should integrate well into the room. The style of the room also plays a crucial role. A mix of furniture or modern furniture, vintage style are also ideal "galleries" for your artwork.

Variety of Mosaic Types

Unlike many other providers, we can create not only "normal" mosaic images, where equally sized tiles are arranged side by side and below each other. With us, you can even choose between several mosaic types.

The mosaic images are created using the same algorithm that powers the Photo-Mosaic-Edda. A complex calculation process analyzes the individual tiles and their colors to optimally arrange them for the mosaic effect. Subsequently, a slight overlay of the original image can enhance the mosaic effect to suit personal preferences.
