Trigris angle

firing is the defining clue: encaustic means the pattern of Angle Trigris is not glazed or printed but poured as coloured cement into a divider mould, then pressed and cured. At Carocim, the white, black and grey pigments run millimetres deep into the 16 mm body, so the cement tile carries its design within its very matter.

Preparation decides the final result: a flat, clean, dry and stable screed is strongly recommended for Angle Trigris, since a 16 mm cement tile will not bend to hide irregularities. Combine a level substrate with double spreading of adhesive and fine joints, and Carocim's sharp geometric angles will align with millimetric precision.

No fuss, no ornament — that is the trick: Angle Trigris relies on wide contrasting blocks of white, black and grey arranged as a structured corner motif. Carocim distilled the cement tile down to pure graphic minimalism, which is why this classic craft object reads as strikingly contemporary in a modern interior.

Sun resistance is built in before any finish: Carocim systematically applies an anti-UV treatment to this outdoor-rated cement tile, protecting the pigments so Angle Trigris keeps its true white, black and grey. On site, complete it with a pore-filling protector, matt or satin as you prefer, and clean only with neutral soap.

Three shades set the stage — white, black and grey — and both metals succeed differently: black fittings extend the graphic rigour of Angle Trigris for a monochrome, architectural look, while brass introduces a warm counterpoint that softens the minimalism. Against this Carocim cement tile, brass catches the light beautifully; black keeps the composition strict.
