Mosaic Floor from a Palace at Pella which is in Macedonia, provides an example of a Pausian Design. Blossoms, leaves, spiraling tendrils, and twisting undulating stems frame this scene, echoing the linear patterns formed by the hunters, the dog, and the struggling stag. At this time period artists were very significant with their details and were done with very carefully selected assortment of natural Pebbles.
Today we still use the Mosaic floors and the creativity has increased with good artists and designers, we use that pattern in so many designs. Like creating a three-dimensional effect or an abstract design. For E.g. Kitchen Countertops, Wall hangings, Walls and Floors, Inside Bars and Party halls, and also on top the Dining tables which can be used inside or outside.

Mosaics are beautiful, and they have carried foward into todays culture as well. I have books om Mosaics and would love to try them,but for now I paid someone to mosaic 2 tables for me, A unique art....
Just another type of artistry that has stood the test of time. Mosaics are a large part of present day design and can come anywhere from luxury to basic. Not much stands up to the pieces made in Roman times.
