Brickaizer is a high-efficiency and easy to use brick mosaic image making tool for Windows and Mac platforms, developed by APP Helmond from Netherlands. It can generate a variety of high-definition, realistic mosaic art works from images or videos easily and quickly.

You can add custom mosaic blocks, and if you don’t know what color is appropriate to add, Brickaizer supports automatic color adding according to the shape. And the program uses the renowned Mosaizer XV (a high-precision and high-speed color matching engine) to optimize the use of bricks’ number, color and size, so that the generated mosaic images are clear and beautiful even when viewed up close.

Brickaizer has built in many different colors and types of bricks, through which different mosaic effects can be achieved. In addition, it also provides many other features, such as: multiple matching conditions, support to add CSV data, can adjust the 3D display effect, support to add image data sets, support to manually draw the color palette, and all output is the readable and printable format.
