Mosaics by Elysium Tiles

Malibu mosaic tile collection

Malibu is a single glass design: Malibu Ocean Brick, a 12 × 12 in sheet of glass bricks in blue and green ocean tones. It is supplied with a plastic face mount, a clear film over the front of the sheet that holds the pieces in position, rather than a mesh backing behind them. Choose it for a kitchen backsplash, a bar wall or a bath accent where a sea-colored brick pattern is the goal.

02Designing with it

Working with Malibu

Face-mounted sheets are pressed into the thin-set from the front, and the film is removed once the adhesive has gripped, before grouting. The method gives the installer a clear view of the joints but leaves the back of each piece bare, so full adhesive coverage is important with glass. Use a white thin-set made for glass tile so the blue and green stay clear. Elysium has not yet listed a suggested grout color for this design; we can help you choose one with a sample.

Still deciding? Call +1 (213) 776-0000 or send us your plan.

What is a face-mounted mosaic?
A sheet held together by a film or paper on its front face instead of a mesh on the back. The installer sets it face-out, lets the adhesive grab, then removes the film before grouting.
What grout should I use with Malibu Ocean Brick?
Elysium lists the grout color for Malibu Ocean Brick as to be determined. Bring a sample home or test grout shades on a board in the showroom before deciding.
How do I get samples of Malibu mosaics?
