mosaically

In the manner of a mosaic—assembled from distinct pieces to form a unified whole.
The word appears in discussions of art, culture, or composition where elements combine without fully blending: The neighborhood developed mosaically, each immigrant community maintaining its character while contributing to the larger urban fabric.
