Glass Tile Makes Bathroom Sparkle

Modern Artistic Playful Interiors, Inc., or M.A.P. Interiors, has remained true to their brand name in Southern California with a little help from Hakatai glass mosaic tile. Principal Sylvia Beez keeps a sharp eye out for “unique objects for the modern home,” and has found the variety of colors and styles of Hakatai mosaic tile to be just that.

In her recent remodel of a private residence in Orange County, Beez had little to work with when she encountered the small, outdated master bathroom. With no room to expand the space, her only other option was to make it “special” and more modern by selecting the right surfacing materials. To complement new modern vestibule-style sinks, wood cabinetry and stylish hanging lamps, Beez and M.A.P. Interiors selected the color Safari Blend from Hakatai’s Aventurine series for two full walls. She also created an accent band from the Aventurine series color Sage that divides the room and makes it feel more spacious.

“Hakatai’s glass tile brought in the sparkle,” said Beez. “We had to work with a small space so we brought in high-quality materials for the surfacing. Hakatai has great, quality products, and it helped make the space very vibrant. The customer really liked it. I have a lot of sources around me where I could get similar products, but Hakatai works really well with designers and you can rely on the quality. And the customer service is excellent, that’s why I keep coming back. We are very happy with the company.”
