Description
APE Koen Ki Cenere 16×48 Fluted — Premium Ceramic Fluted Wood-Look Wall Tile from Spain
The APE Koen Ki Cenere 16×48 Fluted is a dimensional, sculpted ceramic wall tile that brings vertical fluted relief and the warmth of a cool grey-ash wood-look finish to interior surfaces. Made in Spain by APE Cerámica, this 16″x48″ panel is engineered for designers and contractors who want the texture of slatted wood paneling without the maintenance — ideal for feature walls, headboards, hospitality interiors, and modern bathroom installations.
About the Koen Ki Fluted Collection by APE Cerámica
The Koen Ki collection is APE Cerámica’s sculpted wall-tile interpretation of the Koen porcelain wood family, inspired by Japanese craftsmanship and the precision of slatted timber joinery. Each Cenere panel pairs the soft ash and weathered driftwood undertones of natural wood with a three-dimensional fluted face that animates with directional lighting. V3 moderate shade variation across the 6 graphic variations means every wall reads as authentic, not repetitive. This finish coordinates beautifully with whites, charcoals, brushed nickel, and stone-look surfaces.
Installation & Applications for APE Koen Ki Cenere 16×48 Fluted
The 16″x48″ (40×120 cm) rectified format is designed exclusively for interior wall installations — feature and accent walls, bathroom walls (above-tub surrounds, vanity walls), bedroom headboard walls, and commercial spaces such as hotel lobbies, restaurants, showrooms, and retail. The vertical fluted profile is most striking when run floor-to-ceiling in a stack-bond pattern with thin grout joints. Because of the relief geometry, the Koen Ki is not rated for floors and is not frost-resistant — for matching floor installations, specify the flat APE Koen Cenere 8″x48″ porcelain plank from the same collection for a coordinated floor-to-wall scheme.
