Colours Inspired by Geometry

Rooted in the spirit of Brutalist architecture, the I.MAT palette translates the raw, uncompromising beauty of concrete into porcelain. Brutalism, a movement known for its monumental forms and structural honesty, is fuelled by the harshness and expressive force of industrial concrete. I.MAT embraces these qualities, capturing surface details such as subtle cracks, salt traces, and tonal shifts to create tiles that are both authentic and refined.

Each shade in the collection reflects this geometric and mathematical soul, offering a spectrum of concrete-inspired tones:

• Ratio – a neutral white that brings light and clarity, echoing Brutalism’s interplay of space and form.
• Area – a warm beige that softens the industrial edge, ideal for versatile applications.
• Rule – a pale, cool grey, minimalist and precise, embodying Brutalism’s structural rigour.
• Square – a warm grey that balances strength with subtle warmth, perfect for modern living.
• Cube – a deep, bold grey, dramatic and expressive, a nod to the movement’s most powerful architectural statements.

Together, these colours offer a decisive yet harmonious palette, enabling designers to craft interiors and exteriors that resonate with the raw poetry of concrete and the timeless elegance of Italian porcelain.

I.MAT Decors and Feature Tiles

To complement the main range, I.MAT includes refined decorative options:

• Pattern – inspired by concrete formwork, celebrating material imperfections as unique design features.
• Axiom (wall only) – geometric picket/long hexagon mosaics enhanced with brass accents, perfect for feature walls and striking focal points.

These I.MAT decors allow designers and homeowners to enrich their projects with subtle details or bold statement pieces.
