Jose works with various materials: Polished and Tumbled Stone such
as Marble and Travertine, Glazed and Unglazed Ceramic Tile,
Ceramic floor tile and Vitreous Glass tile.
All of Jose's mosaics are entirely handcrafted. Most of the tiles are
cut using traditional methods to produce a unique piece of work. He
is personally involved in the creation of each work from beginning to
end.
He works with home builders, designers, as well as home owners. He
has worked with custom home builders such as Jauregui, Brian
Bailey, and designers David Bravo and Peter Fleury among others.
His most significant opportunity came when Luis Jauregui
commisioned him to design a large mosaic for the 2006 Parade of
Homes in Seven Oaks. This house received the award for Best
Interior Design and his mosaic backsplash was featured in the
magazine Austin Home and living.
Jose meet with his clients and discuss with them the theme or subject
of the new project. He produces drawings and sketches in order to
create a model for his mosaics. Some of these designs appear on the
left on this page.
Jose can also do the final installation of the mosaic.
Cost of Custom Mosaics
Every mosaic design is different.
Jose meets with his clients at their convenience. There is no charge
for the designing process.
The cost of the mosaic project will depend on the kind of tiles, size
and kind of design (geometric, figurative or landscape).
The cost per square foot of a custom mosaic, including materials,
creation, installation, grouting and sealing, will range from $ 125.00 -
$ 350.00.
