Bring the Beauty of Mosaics Into Your Home

Last Updated on February 22, 2021

The beauty of mosaic art has intrigued the world for centuries. In fact, this timeless art form dates back to the third millennium, when a particular temple in Mesopotamia was discovered. That’s over 5,000 years ago! Today, mosaics are more popular than ever, and they are solidifying their beauty in places our ancestors never dreamed of. This extraordinary sustainability of beauty and design leads us to ask the question: “What is it about mosaics that allows them to stand the test of time?”

This month, Granite and TREND Transformations invites you to explore these artistic passions at TREND Group as we showcase some of our breathtaking projects. As one of the world’s leading producers of colored glass mosaic, Venetian enamel, gold leaf tesserae and engineered stone surfaces, your home could be a part of history with the timeless and exquisite designs of our mosaic tile collection. But first: How much do you know about mosaic?

Mosaic is the art of creating images with an assemblage of small pieces of colored glass, stone, and other materials. In ancient times, mosaics were made of stones, shells and ivory. Today at TREND Group, we blend the essential principles of Italian tradition with innovative technology while retaining maximum respect for the Earth’s resources.

TREND: Turning technology into art while respecting tradition

In the year 2000, Dr. Pino Bisazza and Andrea DiGiuseppe combined their lifetimes of passion and experience in the manufacturing of mosaic, glass tile and terrazzo. Along with a team of passionate colleagues, Bisazza and DiGiuseppe formed the TREND Group, headquartered in Vicenza, Italy. The TREND Group is firmly rooted in the artistic integrity of its Venetian glass foundry—the Orsoni Venezia 1888 furnace. Centuries-old materials take their place alongside the most advanced production at the TREND Group’s manufacturing facility in Sebring, Florida, which provides engineered agglomerates to its discriminating network of dealers and growing international franchise system of Granite and TREND Transformations showrooms.

A Family of Companies

Founded in 1996, Granite Transformations and TREND Transformations is a family of companies with locations that span across eight countries on four continents. Through the vision and passion of Dr. Pino Bisazza and Andrea DiGiuseppe, our parent company TREND Group—was brought to life.
