MosaicModell

MosaicModell is a brand and product line that develops modular systems for creating mosaic art. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes materials, tools, and instructional kits that enable users to assemble images from small tesserae tiles in a repeatable, adjustable format. Central to MosaicModell’s approach is an interlocking grid and sheet system that secures individual tesserae and allows rapid assembly, modification, and disassembly.

Originating in Germany in the early 2000s, MosaicModell grew from a craft studio into an international supplier with a focus on accessibility for hobbyists as well as professional mosaists. Its product catalog includes glass, ceramic, and natural stone tesserae, removable mounting boards, adhesives, and grouts designed for the system. The company also markets Starter Kits for schools and community programs, as well as larger-scale kits intended for galleries and public art projects. In addition, MosaicModell offers planning software and online tutorials to help users design patterns and color palettes before beginning a project.

Applications span decorative panels and murals, educational activities, and therapy programs, with projects ranging from small framed compositions to large public artworks. The brand emphasizes sustainability, offering recyclable or reusable components and guidance on material choice based on durability and indoor or outdoor use. Reception has been generally positive, noting the approach’s ease of use and reproducibility while acknowledging that color variation can occur with natural tesserae and that intricate free-form work may require traditional hand-cutting.
