Whispers of the Tropics: Mosaic Murals for MC Luxury, Bangalore

For this residential project in Bangalore, MC Luxury commissioned two custom mosaic wall murals from MEC Artworks.

“The tropical mosaics challenge the eye with layered geometry and restrained cool tones. In scaling them to murals, we amplified pattern and form”

Binoy, our client, played a central role in coordinating between the interior design team and our studio, ensuring that information flowed clearly and decisions were made without delays.

Whispers of the Tropics Mosaic Murals for MC Luxury, Bangalore

MEC ARTWORKS • Audio Episode

Client Brief

The two mosaics were designed for very different spots.

The arched mural is all about a single botanical shape. Soft greens, greys, and subtle metallics were chosen to complement the curve of the niche.

The bedroom mural takes a bigger approach. Layered tropical leaves form the backdrop, with a bird tucked among them rather than perched on top.

Before any material decisions were finalised, MC Luxury’s architects shared detailed drawings, elevations, and reference imagery.

Inspiration Moodboard

The client shared tropical mosaic designs as our starting point. We explored references that emphasized texture, form, and color in ways that could translate to large-scale murals.

Key inspirations included:

Layered tropical foliage – palms and leaves simplified into geometric forms.
Abstracted flower patterns – bold shapes with subtle color variations.
Cool, restrained palette – keeping the vibrancy of the tropics while staying sophisticated.
Water and natural textures – hints of fluidity to contrast the structured shapes.

Design Development

Initial Sketches

The initial sketches combine architectural plans, design annotations, and early concept explorations, mapping how the mosaics could come to life as full-scale murals

2D & 3D Visualizations

MC Luxury provided 2D and 3D visualizations, helping us see how the mosaic-inspired murals would interact with the space and scale before execution.

Color Palette & Materials

The murals draw from a cool-tone palette, adding to the luxurious feel of the residence.

Arched Mural - Tropical Theme Continuity

Second mosaic – stayed true to the tropical theme, featuring a bird nestled among layered foliage.

Handcrafted work often reveals its true character gradually. During reviews, photographs of the first mosaic raised concerns about background reflectivity. We explained how surrounding light and surfaces can amplify reflection in images, even when the material itself remains subtle in person.

“Both murals have been approved by the architect. Could you please proceed with the dispatch at your earliest convenience?”

— Binoy, MC Luxury

Once completed, the mosaics were packed and shipped from our warehouse in Dubai to India via DHL. Customs delays followed, as they often do with international art shipments.

Our involvement did not end with dispatch. We remained actively engaged with the client, Binoy, shipping agents, and customs authorities until the artworks were cleared.

Final Installed Photos

“Thank you very much for your support! Both mosaics are approved by us”

— MC Luxury

This project reflects how we approach commissioned work. Design consultancy guides each decision. Communication remains open and documented. Pricing is clear from the start. Refinement is expected, not avoided.

Delivery and after-sales support are treated as responsibilities, not handovers.

FAQs

Can I order mosaic murals for international delivery?

Yes. Many design studios like MEC Artworks offer international shipping and installation services for mosaic murals. Designers plan production and packaging carefully to ensure the mural arrives safely and can be installed worldwide.

How do you maintain a mosaic mural?

Mosaic murals are durable, but proper care keeps them looking new. Regular dusting, gentle cleaning with a damp cloth, and avoiding harsh chemicals help preserve tiles and colors. For larger projects, designers may provide specific maintenance instructions

Can mosaic murals be installed in homes, offices, or public spaces?

Yes. Mosaic murals are versatile and can enhance living rooms, lobbies, restaurants, or even outdoor walls. They work well in both residential and commercial interiors. Explore MEC’s catalog and look through a range of options.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nada and the team at MEC did a fantastic job with our kitchen backsplash! We loved the Erassa design on their website and they were very accommodating with updating it to reflect our own preferences. After making a number of tweaks and approving the final design, we received the completed mosaic earlier than expected and packaged very well. The installation went smoothly and we love looking at it every time we enter our kitchen!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zeeha and the entire Mec Artworks team were excellent to work with!  I can't recommend them enough.  We talked to lots of different companies when designing the custom mosaic for our pool, and Zeeha and her team were prompt, professional, and group we felt most comfortable proceeding with.  We couldn't be happier with the quality of their end-product!  The mosaic turned out beautiful, the communication through the process was reliable, and the installed mosaic is the centerpiece of the pool we were hoping for.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found MEC online searching for a mosaic Persian rug for my bathroom. I found the Este Custom Marble Persian Mosaic Rug and loved it the way it was but the sizing needed to be tweaked a little. Nada got back to me right away and was extremely helpful with making the necessary adjustments to maintain the integrity of the rug to fit the space. Nada sent samples, videos and a thoughtful presentation of of the piece with mock ups of how it would look in the space. We were so thrilled with how the rug turned out. I am still waiting for the full install but could not be more pleased with the whole process, communications and quality of MEC's work. I would highly recommend MEC to anyone who is thinking about a mosaic piece. Nada, Zeeha and team were a true pleasure to work with. (Pictures to come!)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It has been a wonderful and fun experience to work with MEC on the design and execution of our kitchen mosaic. Nada was prompt and thorough with her replies, always giving us in-depth understanding and explanation when needed. We felt reassured throughout the whole process. Nada made sure that the end mosaic met our complete expectations. We were looking for more than a backsplash, and the mosaic created by MEC is truly a piece of art. This was an investment that not only pulled the room together, but also highlights a stunning piece of creativity. Very reasonably priced for the quality, beauty, and piece of art made with unique composition and creativity. Would do this again and again with MEC!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have now completed two projects with MEC. The results on both a large bath and full kitchen were outstanding. The design team was a pleasure to work with, they completed and delivered ahead of schedule, and the quality of the murals truly added a unique and high-quality to the rooms. I will look forward to working with them again.
