The new FapNatura collection by Fap Ceramiche is inspired by the noblest traditions of architecture and art. A collection of porcelain stoneware flooring that offers a beautifully sensitive, natural reproduction of the superb shine and elegance of marble, one of the finest, most noble materials known.
FapNatura comes in the rectified sizes 29.x59 and 59x59 cm, in the classic square shape or in the new Octagonal shape, in two different finishes – glossy and matt.Five colour options inspired by traditional, variable stone: from classic Carrara marble, white with subtle grey veins, or Bardiglio, with delicate shades of grey through to the warm grey nuances of Striato or the beige shade of Navone o Crema Reale. Different colourings, almost imperceptible variants created by nature over thousands of years of limestone sedimentation, which Fap ceramiche is able to recreate today with the very same natural allure. In the FapNatura collection these extremely genuine textures are enhanced by a series of distinctive decorative features with evocative names, able to design authentic carpets on the floor, so striking and surprising that they create eye-catching optical illusion effects in which these “carpets” appear to have been cut up into precise mosaic pieces and then assembled together again like a jigsaw. The end result is both original and enchanting. Istanbul, Versailles, Firenze, Mosca: these are the names of the designs that evoke ancient dwellings, far-flung lands or the luxurious splendour of those ancient cultures that have written the history of carpets.
The base tiles and the decorative elements intersect and complement one another, thus creating new compositions and attractive patterns. From residential bathrooms, kitchens and living areas to large hotels and little resorts…for anyone seeking refined, prestigious covering materials.
The collection includes numerous special trims, decorative elements and mosaic tiles, as well as versions in which the emphasis is on the “cleft” or “polished” processes typical of traditional marble products. In addition, a number of decorative elements, as a result of their size, material quality or particular features, can also be used on walls. The FapNatura collection thus derives from an eye for tradition and Italian culture at its most noble; yet at the same time it incorporates the cutting-edge technology and manufacturing techniques required today to create great products able to meet the demands of contemporary living styles.
