Custom Art on Tiles, Glass, and Home Surfaces
I believe functional surfaces should tell a story. Whether it is a kitchen backsplash or a glass partition, I design and apply custom art to transform ordinary materials into meaningful pieces for your home.
This bathroom wall is transformed into a work of art with bespoke ceramic tiles. The design, inspired by ancient Egyptian motifs, is printed in a classic blue and white palette, creating a luxurious and timeless look around the bathtub.

Here, I explain how I use ceramic tiles as a medium for my art. I can transfer custom patterns and designs onto these durable tiles, making them perfect for kitchens, outdoor spaces, and terrace gardens.
In this video, I discuss using glass as a surface for my bespoke designs. My prints can be applied to glass for use in furniture, as statement artwork, or as decorative panels, offering a unique way to personalize your space.
About Art on Unexpected Surfaces: Tiles, Glass & More
When I work with ceramic tiles, the layout is just as important as the painting. I treat every tile as a puzzle piece, ensuring the design flows seamlessly across joints so you get a continuous mural rather than a fractured image. This is exactly how we keep the art intact on kitchen backsplashes or bathroom walls.
For me, art should not stay trapped on a canvas. My studio focuses on printing and painting directly onto the surfaces you use every day, ensuring your home reflects your personality rather than following a catalog.
The Process
Everything starts with a conversation. Whether you have a specific heritage motif in mind or want to recreate a personal memory, I translate these ideas into digital illustrations that are ready for printing. For glass, we use high-resolution printing to add depth without sacrificing light, which is why it works so well for doors and partitions. For tiles, we use UV inks that bind to the ceramic, making them durable enough for high-traffic areas like kitchen backsplashes and even outdoor terrace walls.
Why Unexpected Surfaces?
I love the challenge of adapting a design to a specific material. For example, when I worked on the Egyptian chariot mural for a bathroom, we had to ensure the lines of the chariot aligned perfectly across the grout lines. It was a complex grid design, but seeing the finished mural brings a sense of history into a space that is usually just for utility.
What to Expect
We prioritize both aesthetics and function. Every print gets a protective top coat to handle scratches, and we make sure the material specifications match your environment, whether that is a steamy bathroom or a sunny kitchen. If you are looking to turn your glass doors or tiled walls into a piece of art, let's explore what patterns and stories we can bring to life.
