Roma Calacatta

Fap ceramiche presents Roma: the enthralling contemporaneity of satin-finished marble

Roma is the new porcelain stoneware floor tile and white body wall tile collection by Fap ceramiche that reinterprets the embracing charm of marble and stone in a contemporary key.

Not only the range but even its name pays homage to the great beauty and Italian style that is loved throughout the world. The sophisticated grains of the marble help to create elegant settings, exclusive atmospheres with timeless charm. A sophisticated and seductive range of unique pieces with a strong personality, ideal for both residential and contract use.

Roma is a complete project, an extremely articulated collection in terms of size, shape, colours, decorations and surfaces, which sums up Fap's design skill and the will of the company to talk to the market with a cutting-edge designer range that perfectly responds to the different needs of a constantly evolving market.

The absolute star of this new collection is matter: Fap has managed to capture and reproduce the extreme realism and naturalness of the special colours and appearance of stone and marble, interpreting a selection of precious, fashionable marbles in six different shades: Grafite, Statuario, Calacatta, Imperiale, Pietra and Travertino. The result is a fine balance between soft surfaces and the natural effect of matter.

Roma combines all the technological know-how of Fap ceramiche. The porcelain stoneware floor tiles run from large rectified sizes - 75x150, 75x75, 60x60 and 30x60 cm (available in both Matt and the unique Lux brushed versions), to small sizes with a craft flavour, 20x20, 7.5x30 cm and hexagon 21.6x25 cm (all with Matt finish). The white body wall tiles, with Matt finish, come in size 25x75 cm and in the brand new extra-size 50x110 cm RT, an absolute first for the market.

The wall tiling in the collection is available in both sizes and with two 3D surface finishes: Filo, reproducing an elegant reed pattern typical of contemporary marble processing and Fold, a charming structure creating prisms of light.

The range also includes a rich variety of inserts and mosaics for both floor and wall. Made from porcelain stoneware, the range of decorations Roma Deco in the brand new size 20x20 cm and the third-firing insert Tracce again in size 20x20 cm. For the hexagonal size, a decoration is available with an impressive graphic detail. The pieces Righe, Incroci and Greca Mosaico used to enhance floors with modern two-tone patterns. The range is completed by some special pieces - Skirting, Stair tiles and wood-effect Rhombus, ideal for creating a perfect finish.

And to enhance the walls, on the other hand, why not try some elements with a more classic flavour such as the insert Classic, a delicate weave of ton-sur-ton acanthus leaves, and the listel Greca, with the typical pattern of marble listels. And for wall tiling with more character, the insert 50x110 RT Dark, with a modern damask flavour and the Listel Raku, made from precious metallic tesserae.

Roma also has a wide range of mosaics: the unique “Round” 29.5x32.5 cm, which stands out for its round tesserae; “Brick” 30x30 cm with small rectangular tesserae with irregular edges and “Micromosaico”: square micro tesserae, again with an irregular edge. The mosaic Roma "Natura", with three-dimensional square tesserae with an irregular surface, creating a vibrantly soft effect. Also in the range, the classic ton-sur-ton mosaic with square tesserae (T144) made precious by satin-finished textured effects.
