Art of maison

The grand cathedrals of Italy. A cozy cottage in the English countryside. Ripples in the dunes at a Southern California beach. A honeycomb’s infinitely repeating hexagons. The delicate translucence of a shellfish interior.

The creative inspiration for Maison tile designers sprawls across time, experience, and scale—from the unique snapshot glimpses of their world travels to a quiet moment of nature revealed in one’s own metaphorical backyard. Often, inspiration arrives in the form of the materials themselves—the earthy beauty of natural stone, the mesmerizing translucence of through-and-through cast glass tiles, the gentle glint of metallic, mirror, quartz, and mother of pearl accents.

The Art of Maison is the ability to see possibilities where functionality and creativity intersect.

What. Designers at Maison draw their inspiration from art, architecture, and fine materials from around the world—setting trends and serving as the industry’s catalyst for forward-thinking tile design and manufacturing.

Where. Our design team is truly international, sprawling across continents and time zones, while our international factories are able to access the materials, artistic sensibility, and precise craftsmanship to bring your vision to life.

When. From your first conversation with a Maison designer to the last swipe of a grout sponge, we understand the importance of your timeline. In-stock materials let you get to work almost immediately, while our custom projects offer an 8-10 week lead time.

Why. Every project, no matter how large or small, is an opportunity to let your tilework speak. By blending inspiration, imagination, and trend-setting concepts, our design team brainstorms custom solutions that match your budget, style, and project.

How. With the highest quality materials in hand, Maison’s artisans commence their detail work, melding the best of modern production techniques with the beauty of ancient craftsmanship—using techniques such as water jet, saw cut, and hand clip to perfectly suit the specific task at hand.

If you’re inspired by our in-house collections, we have a dazzling array of patterns, materials, and finishes—including many in-stock options to get you started right away. If a custom design is more your style, of course, our team of designers and tile artisans can bring your imagination to reality.

Opening the map: Like unfolding an old-school atlas, the excitement of your Maison journey begins with planning a route. Via email or phone, our design experts will get to know your project and preferences, from the details of physical dimensions to the creative elements of style, colors, patterns, and materials.

Embarking down the trail: For custom projects, we’ll convert your CAD or detailed drawing set to a first rendering within 24 hours. This step is where you’ll review “the terrain”: Are the dimensions, colors, and other elements what you wanted, or do you need to change course?

Signposts along the way: Complimentary swatch samples of your specified materials give you the opportunity to examine their hue, texture, and finish. If desired, we can produce a sample strike-off that allows you to experience how the tile will appear in its planned environment and lighting conditions.

Reaching your destination: In-stock tiles can be shipped same-day. Custom projects have a lead time of just 8 to 10 weeks—unique custom tile designs, materials, and finishes.

No matter what your final destination or your route to get there, the Maison team will ensure smooth travels.

Art of Mosaics

Since the first stone, shell, and ivory mosaics appeared in Mesopotamia more than 4000 years ago, mosaic patterns have been used to enhance environments and tell stories. Every ancient civilization has put its unique spin on the mosaic concept. Starting in the 4th Century BC, the Greeks began to expand mosaic as an artistic medium—and thanks to the sprawl of the Roman Empire, mosaic floors and water features could be found in villas and public spaces from Africa to northern Europe. From the 6th to the 15th centuries, mosaic art was a key feature in the Byzantine Empire as well.

Over time, mosaics evolved in the scenes they depicted, from wildlife, hunts, and gladiator battles to religious scenes and elaborate abstract patterns—and expanded in the materials and color palettes that were incorporated. From cathedrals and palaces to public spaces and private homes, mosaic truly evoked a timeless blend of craftsmanship and artistic vision.

Today, Maison brings this ancient mode of communication and tile art into the modern era—and no matter what message you want to convey and where, we have the materials and designs that enable you to deliver it. We’re proud to be a part of the history of mosaics. More important, we are inspired to be an innovator of the newest manufacturing techniques and materials to create its future.
