The Impel series was used as the conceptual and aesthetic starting point for transforming this simple farmhouse kitchen backsplash with a bold and modern functional art installation. Mosaic 'windows' in the neutral surround tile offer glimpses of another world. Transparent glass conveys a sense of fluidity and depth while iridescent and 24k gold smalti ensure reflectance in all lighting conditions.
