The creation of the \u201cBlack Pool Tatami\u201d mosaic<\/h2><\/div>

Transforming a pool into a work of art requires vision, precision, and deep artisanal expertise. This project showcases the journey inside the workshop behind the creation of a unique surface: the Black Pool Tatami<\/strong><\/a> mosaic from the prestigious New Ravenna<\/a> collection.<\/p>\n

From paper to water, here are the key stages that bring this design masterpiece to life.<\/p>\n<\/div>

1.<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

The project print: the design takes shape<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

Every great work begins with a precise blueprint. The first step is the development and full-scale printing of the design.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Material selection<\/h2><\/div>

For this project, the glass tiles were carefully selected, seeking the perfect chromatic balance to enhance the effect of the water.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

Waterjet cutting: millimetric geometric precision<\/h2><\/div>

Once the glass tiles have been selected, the process moves on to the technological manufacturing phase: waterjet cutting. This high-precision machinery allows the glass to be cut into perfectly shaped strips.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

Mosaic preparation<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

With the glass strips ready, the mosaic finally comes to life on the workbench. At this stage, the composition is assembled by carefully following the design that was previously printed.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cutting the modules and preparing for shipment<\/h2><\/div>

Once the composition on the workbench is complete, the mosaic is carefully cut into smaller, numbered geometric modules.<\/p>\n<\/div>
