Mosaics
by SayNooty
Mosaics adds mosaic blocks made from planks of many wood types, including Dark Oak, Mangrove, Cherry, Pale Oak, Crimson and Warped, along with bamboo mosaics.
What it does
Vanilla Minecraft offers mosaic blocks only for a few materials, and the mod fills the gaps by adding mosaic variants for the other planks. Each wood type that exists in a given version gets its own mosaic, so Mangrove, Poplar, Cherry and Pale Oak blocks appear in the versions that introduced those woods. Bamboo mosaics are included as well, which vanilla leaves out for no clear reason.
Mosaics is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 15 release versions, 1.14.4 – 26.3, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. The code is released under the MIT License but is not open source. Snapshot builds are published as well, with the latest Fabric file 1.2 for 26.3 on 2026-09-15.
Key features
Mosaics for every wood
Each planks type available in a game version gets a matching mosaic block for building floors and walls.
Bamboo mosaics
Bamboo blocks can be turned into mosaics, a material vanilla does not provide.
Newer wood types
Mangrove, Cherry and Pale Oak mosaics are added alongside the woods that arrived with those updates.
Nether wood mosaics
Crimson and Warped planks have mosaic variants, so Nether builds can match the other wood types.

Use cases
Matching floors
Builders can keep one mosaic pattern across rooms made from different wood types.
Mixed-wood builds
Players working with several woods in one structure can use matching mosaic blocks instead of mixing them by hand.
Who it’s for: Builders and players who decorate with wood. The mod suits survival bases, houses and multiplayer servers where the same decorative blocks should exist on every wood type.

The mod adds a variation of mosaics to the game for other types of planks, not just bamboo. In Minecraft, there is a mosaic only for bamboo, and for some reason there is no mosaic for other planks, but this mod will fix it. The mod is supported even on those versions where there is no mosaic. However, the mod will…
