In mosaic, each design has a linear structure, with the glass or stone cut on a water jet and assembled by hand at the New Ravenna studio in Exmore, Virginia. According to Baldwin, founder and creative director of New Ravenna Mosaics, “I realized that parquet flooring in wood is a classic form that would lend itself beautifully to stone and glass. Our materials have natural striations that are only enhanced by the process of reassembling the geometric pieces.” Truman, Newman, Rubrik and Marshall are available in stone for interior and exterior floors and walls, and in glass for interior vertical walls. The mosaics are custom made to order for each installation.
