Custom pool mosaic gradient transitioning from warm sand tones to deep blue

Blend or gradient?

A blend mixes several tile colors throughout a surface. A gradient changes their proportions across a planned distance, creating a transition from one color to another.

Both are developed for your project. A consistent blue blend can connect a pool and spa; a gradient can move from pale aqua to deep blue, or from sand tones into the water.

The color range

Project photos show installed work alongside close-up color and material samples. Water and lighting can change the appearance of the same tile palette.

Planning the transition

We start with your colors, surface dimensions and the direction the gradient should travel. The transition is drawn for that distance rather than stretched from a standard sheet.

Light, water depth and nearby finishes affect how the tile reads. We review the palette and sample details before production so your project team can approve the design direction.

Where gradients work

Pool floors: a color transition across the pool or a consistent blend throughout.

Spas and steps: a coordinated palette across seating, walls and changes in level.

Waterlines and feature walls: a vertical or horizontal transition designed for the surface.

Choose a color direction

Use the studio sheet as a starting point, or share your own palette. Tell us where the mosaic will go and how far the transition should travel.

Blends: Abacos, Emerald Sea, Pacifico, Abyss and Sea Minerals.

Gradients: Azuleta, Verdeta, Lagoona, Shore, Comet and Lunar.

These are color references; your final layout is developed for your dimensions.

From approval to delivery

Share your plans, approximate surface dimensions, preferred colors and target schedule. We review the scope and develop a custom sample board once the project is confirmed.

Finished mosaics arrive paper-faced in numbered sections with a keyed layout. Your tile setter or project team handles installation.
