Overview
We were brought in very late to this project - the landscape architect designed it, and the concrete contractor realized right away that it could only be built in LithoMosaics - and by us, as the deadline was less than two weeks. It is a splash pad at a 5-star hotel. The tiles are all handmade and cut Mexican smalti, with the exception of some silvered lines. All had to be special ordered and overnighted via FedEx (from Mexico!)
Goals
If we had been brought in earlier, the water nozzles would have been placed better, but overall this is a home run of a project - the client, contractors, and guests are thrilled with it.
