Materia Eclettica

Italian Cement-Effect Porcelain Tiles by FAP Ceramiche

FAP Ceramiche Materia Eclettica is a contemporary cement-effect porcelain tile collection that celebrates raw materiality through refined design. Created by FAP Ceramiche and made in Italy, the collection transforms the look of concrete into an expressive surface rich with depth, movement and tactile appeal. Rugged yet sophisticated, these tiles are designed for interiors where architectural rigour meets comfort and warmth.

Inspired by natural aggregates, mineral pigments and organic inclusions, this collection delivers a distinctive “pebble” aesthetic — dense, dry and contemporary — ideal for both residential and commercial environments.

Design Inspiration: Matter Becomes Meaning

Materia Eclettica belongs to FAP’s Materia Project, where ceramic surfaces move beyond imitation to become a true design language. Pigments, powders and subtle marbling blend like handcrafted material, creating surfaces that evolve with light and perspective. Each tile expresses an organic, slightly irregular visual movement that feels authentic, architectural, and deeply modern.

The result is a cement-inspired porcelain tile with a strong personality — bold enough for statement spaces, refined enough for everyday living.

 

FAP Materia Eclettica Colours & Feature Tiles

FAP Materia Eclettica tiles are offered in a curated palette inspired by the mineral world:

• Bianco – A soft, luminous cement tone with fine inclusions, ideal for light-filled interiors and minimalist spaces
• Beige – Warm and balanced, shifting subtly between grey and sand, perfect for calm, tactile environments
• Tortora – A deeper, earthy cement shade with rich variation and architectural presence

 

Materia Eclettica Luci Decor – Luminous Cement Detail

The Luci insert (60×120, Tortora) introduces luminous flakes within the tile’s surface. These micro-fragments capture and reflect light, adding depth and subtle brilliance without gloss. Luci is ideal as a feature wall or splashback, bringing a refined decorative accent to cement porcelain tiles.
