Arabesque by Artaic

Collection Summary

Arabesque by Artaic is a decorative mosaic collection that reinterprets traditional ornamental patterns through contemporary color and mosaic construction. Designs include Star Block, Gentle Weave, Intricate Weave, Intertwined, Relief, Carved, Florid, Expanse, and Blossom, with numerous coordinated colorways. Tile X Design lists the collection for floor and wall applications.

Design & Aesthetic

Arabesque draws on old-world pattern language, including flowing vines, woven geometries, stars, and floral forms. Individual designs range from highly ordered repeating patterns to more fluid compositions, allowing the collection to shift between traditional and contemporary settings depending on the selected pattern and palette.

Colorways range from subdued Lunar, Sandstone, and Cinder to saturated Emerald, Flame, Violet, Tangerine, and Royalty.

Material & Craftsmanship

Artaic identifies Arabesque as a mosaic design collection and states that its designs are available in multiple tile materials. Tile X Design currently lists sintered glass and unglazed porcelain for the collection page, so material should be confirmed for the selected design before technical specifications are applied.

Design Applications

Tile X Design identifies Arabesque for both floor and wall applications and categorizes it for residential, commercial, feature-wall, outdoor, and pool use. Because suitability can depend on the selected mosaic material, project-specific use should be confirmed during specification.
