EP143 DIY Marble Backsplash


http://www.homemade-modern.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/mhexbacksplash-banner.jpg

INSTRUCTIONS:




This DIY marble backsplash was made out of mesh mounted hexagon tiles from the Home Depot. I wanted an asymmetrical modern look and used the hexagons to create a landscape aesthetic. We used Fusion Pro Grout in Bright White which is by far the best grout I have ever used. It is a bit more expensive but looks better, is easier to apply and is more stain resistant than any other grout I have ever used.

Each tube is precisely cut in half and individually bent to form the chair's back, seat, and legs.The brass material is intentionally left unsealed, preserving its inherent defects from the manufacturing and handling processes. During the bending of tube halves, the application of heat results in darker visible sections, contributing to the chair's unique character. As time passes, OBJ-02 will naturally age and undergo changes in its appearance.OBJ-02 exemplifies a raw and intentional design, utilizing the brass material's characteristics to create a distinctive low chair.
