Ariel and the team at Artaic created an amazing piece of art, which is the centerpiece of our primary bathroom. **★★★★★ — Pro Quality CT Construction, Feb. 2023** > We just completed a Giant Shower using Artaic Mosaic as a main. Decorative wall. > Amazing product, easy to install,top notch quality, we are very excited to use Artaic mosaic again **★★★★★ — Caldwell & Johnson Custom Builders & Remodelers, Nov. 2022** > We loved working with Artaic to create a stunning bathroom. Both the homeowner and designer couldn't be more pleased. > We highly recommend Artaic for your next custom project. **★★★★★ — Justin McGuire, Oct. 2022** > Our team has been working with Ariel and Artaic for the past year creating come incredible mosaics for our clients. As a pool builder looking to create very individualized projects for our clients, Ariel and her team have worked closely with us to create beautiful mosaic design that have wowed our clients. Through it all, they have been very easy to work with through the design process making it an easy choice for our clients. I have used other custom tile manufacturers in the past and Artaic has been the most available and supportive from beginning to end, **★★★★★ — höffnerdesignstudio, Oct. 2022** > Artaic’s product is really great. For our project, it was a surprisingly affordable way to bring the owners’ identity into the project. The sales representative worked tirelessly with us to ensure we hit budget and stayed on track with our schedule, even during the pandemic insanity. **★★★★★ — Noz Design, Oct. 2022** > Working with Artaic was such a treat, and the final mosaic we created was exceptional. I worked with Ariel on an outdoor floor mosaic that would be installed at the front of a store in San Francisco – and the goal was to both feature the store's logo and make it look as if the mosaic authentic and original to the location. We may have done TOO incredible a job because nobody realizes the mosaic is something we added!! They just assume it's always been there. Every part of the process was fun and easy: quick turnarounds on design and communication, great listening by Ariel to ensure that our clients' vision was interpreted, beautiful designs, exceptional execution and packaging and shipping, and clear detailed instruction on installing the mosaic. Honestly I'm sort of jealous of my own store design; now I want mosaic floors at home too!! **★★★★★ — Soake Pools, Oct. 2022** > Our experience working with Artaic has been top notch. Their design team absolutely nailed both custom mosaic designs that we recently created together. The Artaic team is friendly and collaborative and also very talented. We highly recommend Artaic for any custom design OR for one of the designs from their many collections. **★★★★★ — Christopher's Kitchen & Bath, Oct. 2022** > We used Artaic for two walls of a master bathroom renovation we completed earlier this year. We originally specified large porcelain panels with aspen trees printed on them from a company in Spain. Long story short, the shipping was delayed and delayed and we had to pivot mid-stream during the project. We decided to reach out to Artaic to see if they'd be able to help us create something similar using their products. They trained our staff on the products, helped us work through the different options and then worked with us to create the two large murals for the space. It wasn't "over night" by any means but they told us a lead time and stuck to it and delivered a beautiful, high quality product that turned out better than we could have imagined. Our installation team was impressed with how organized the material was delivered and didn't complain (too much) about installing the 50k+ pieces of tile! Can't wait to use this in more projects to create more completely one of a kind installations! **★★★★★ — Richard Harris, July 2018** > Artaic designed and installed a beautiful mosaic in our kitchen. The process was incredibly easy and the result was amazing. We received exactly what we wanted - a striking and practical piece of art that lights up the room. Our visitors are wowed! Thanks Artaic. **★★★★★ — George Gilpatrick, June 2018** > I sent Artaic a complex image jpeg and asked if they could turn it into a tile mosaic for my fireplace hearth. “Of course”, they said. They even told me the day the robot was putting it together, so I took a field trip and watched it all happen. VERY cool. We liked it so much we had our bathroom walls done by Artaic as well. Great group and I definitely recommend them. **★★★★★ — Nicole McDermott, June 2018** > We absolutely LOVE our mosaic. I attached a quick picture I took with my phone but it really doesn't do it justice. The piece since in our entryway in Hawaii. It gives a truly WOW effect walking in and then the view of the West Maui Mountains and the water put it over the top. Thanks Caroline and Kiva ...great job. Just saw the ceramic mosaic line and I think we will be adding another mosaic to the upcoming house we will be building :) **★★★★★ — Christine Tuttle Design, Dec. 2017** > We designed a master bathroom suite in Greater Boston and incorporated a large custom mosaic on a feature wall. We provided concept drawings and worked in tandem with the Artaic design team to select color tiles for the design. It was a treat to watch the robotic fabrication production. Artaic provided a process that was smooth and responsive. ## Selected projects - [Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-pj-vj~2822083) - Location: Boston, MA - Photos: 15 - Description: Tile has long been the premier surface finish for kitchens due to its durability, versatility, and ability to hold up well in wet environments.
