we are so pleased to introduce one of our favorite remodels to date. We had the honor of working with the amazing client to renovate her shower and we could not be more excited to share this appealing and dreamy shower floor. Keep reading to learn why this project is so near and dear to us.
About Our Client - Sophia
Sophia, our client, is a total expert when it comes to remodeling projects and design. She bought an old house and had been slowly going through the process of restoring it and to put it simply, that’s no small feat. While paying close attention to her house’s minimalist and pure glamour, she had been carefully selecting high-quality materials and studying the details of historic craftsmanship to keep true to the integral architecture of her house. Knowing about the amount of care and detail that goes into a Sophia project, we were more than thrilled to get the ball rolling on one of her projects to remodel a shower floor.
The Mosaic Tile
Sophia wanted something special for her shower floor. Like all shower floors, it’s the first thing you touch when you walk into the shower so something particular was a must. She wanted something polished with a stunning and retro feel to honor her house's traditional roots. She also wanted something with a retro-modern sense yet durable quality. Fortunately, we had just the thing.
Known for their vintage yet sparkling feeling, Iridescent Glass Squares give off pureness that goes completely unmatched. Made up of eye-catching and light-reflecting iridescence, the Hot Melt Collection will provide a unique pop of color to any space. These environmentally friendly glass mosaic tiles are made in China from recycled glass and are ideal for indoor and outdoor areas. Durable, easy to clean, and available in a variety of beautiful colors, the Hot Melt Collection offers a unique expression of style for her personal oasis. Their historically celebrated quality, iridescent effect, and honest glamour were the great vibe for this shower floor.

The Mosaic Pattern
One of our favorite parts of this shower floor remodels project was working with Sophia to lock down a mosaic pattern. We get way too excited when she is inspired by a particular landscape or moment in time because we believe that almost anything can be translated into a mosaic pattern. Whether it’s a Spring landscape, cozy blue sky, summer breeze, or a chic rainbow after the rain, we want to help create that with mosaics.

For this particular shower floor project, Sophia was inspired by the scenery after rain and wanted the tone and pattern of the shower floor to have freshness feel. We played with a range of hot melt chips including pearl whites, grass greens, tree browns, and teals but landed on one custom blend pattern that we just could not resist.
Final Results
Needless to say, we were totally floored by the results. This custom iridescent rainbow shower floor is definitely to write home about. From the perfect pearl white chips with light iridescent variation to charming brilliant color with high variation, this shower floor is mainly for Sophia’s room use so it meets Sophia’s personal style. When it comes to designing a detailed shower floor, Sophia is a true craftsman. We are so happy that our hot melt glass mosaic tile fits right into the mosaic pattern.
