Faveton ACQUA was designed to be placed in a horizontal as well as vertical position. This flexibility in installation, along with its wavy texture, volume and a set of lights and shadows, makes the façade dynamic and, therefore, breaks the static nature of a traditional flat façade. These new pieces are compatible with the standard Faveton S.A.H. system, which means that the technical experience acquired with this system is totally applicable to these new pieces.
The waves of the ceramic tiles, placed in different orientations, provide volume and texture in the facade. With the impact of rays of light, the facade shows shades which give it originality and character.
