Introducing Materia Viva: A New Era in Interior Design
We are thrilled to unveil the newest addition to our product line: Materia Viva. Officially debuting at the Milan Design Week 2024, Materia Viva is set to redefine the standards of interior wall coatings with its innovative and nature-inspired composition.
What is Materia Viva?
Materia Viva is a revolutionary mineral powder coating designed for interior use. Crafted from hydraulic lime, aerial lime, carefully selected aggregates, and rheological modifiers, it offers exceptional workability and versatility. When mixed with Materia Viva Deco Powders, it creates stunning, modern decorative effects.
Combining Materia Viva with natural materials like Cocciopesto, Conchiglia, Pomice, or Sughero grains allows us to rediscover and reinterpret the traditional decorative finishes of Italian and Mediterranean architecture with a contemporary twist.

Materia Viva: The Story of an Encounter
Materia Viva is more than a product; it’s a journey into the heart of nature. Inspired by an ancient connection with the environment, it transforms natural elements into unique surface finishes that evoke a sense of warmth and tranquility. By blending lime with natural fragments, Materia Viva encapsulates the essence of nature, offering a palette of colors, sensations, and sounds that enrich any interior space.
Featured Materials:
Cocciopesto
This material captures the timeless beauty of Mediterranean architecture. Cocciopesto, made of crushed bricks and roof tiles with selected particle sizes, continually reveals new shades, honoring its rich heritage and adding depth to any surface.
Conchiglia
Shell fragments dance with light, creating a dynamic and elegant maritime landscape. Conchiglia brings the treasures of the sea into your space, offering a shimmering, sophisticated touch.
Pomice
Known for its lightness and texture, Pomice introduces a play of soft shadows and contrasts. The volcanic origin of Materia Viva Pomice, combined with the “pozzolanic” properties, brings a rhythmic and dynamic feel, enhancing the visual and tactile experience of your interiors.
Sughero
Soft and protective, Sughero (cork) speaks the language of luxury and silence. It offers a tactile experience that soothes and comforts, adding an element of serene sophistication to your decor.
