Vanguard Arrecife Blue is a rich marine-blue mosaic with deep cobalt, turquoise and fluid wave-like variation.
The colour blends rich marine-blue with deep cobalt and turquoise in a fluid, wave-like variation, so the surface moves and shifts like deep ocean water rather than reading as one flat blue. The cobalt gives it depth while the turquoise keeps it vibrant. Across a pool it reads immersive and ocean-inspired, a deep, moving water colour, and on a wall it makes a bold, aquatic feature. Each small piece catches the light a little differently, adding to the sense of movement. It works with pale stone, timber, white joinery, brass and bold, coastal schemes.

Where it works
Mosaic is a feature material, and Vanguard Arrecife Blue's rich marine-blue is made for water. It suits pool waterlines and full pool interiors, where the marine-blue with cobalt and turquoise gives a deep, immersive, ocean-inspired water look, and bathroom feature walls, splashbacks and spa surrounds where a bold blue belongs. The small format lets it follow curves and wrap corners in a way sheet tiles cannot, which is why mosaics suit pools and rounded walls. The wave-like variation reads especially well over a large pool and in moving water, where the colour appears to shift. Whether this particular mosaic is rated for pool and full wet-area use depends on the material and backing, so that is worth confirming. The recommended applications are still being confirmed, so contact us and we can advise on the right fit for your job.
Choosing a finish
Available finishes: TBC
Mosaics usually come face-mounted or mesh-backed on sheets for easier laying, and the individual pieces may be glossy, matte or a mix. A glossy finish lifts the marine-blue and cobalt and gives depth in a pool. Grout colour makes a big difference with mosaic, since there is so much of it: a mid or dark blue-grey grout keeps the deep, watery look and lets the colours lead, while a white grout brightens the sheet and picks up the turquoise. If you are unsure which finish, backing or grout suits your project, give us a call and we can talk it through.
