Mineral surfaces,
shaped slowly by the hand.

Microcement, lime wash and Venetian plaster — applied as continuous, breathing surfaces for homes, restaurants and galleries.

The Studio

We work in lime, mineral pigments and time. Each surface is mixed on site, trowelled in thin layers and finished slowly — so the material itself becomes the texture, the light, the colour of the room.

Finishes

Three quiet materials.

Microcement finish

01

Microcement

Seamless, water-resistant mineral coating — 2 to 3 millimetres thick — applied to walls, floors, showers and built-in furniture.

Lime wash finish

02

Lime Wash

Breathable, chalky mineral paint with soft cloud-like movement. Ages with quiet grace and naturally regulates humidity.

Venetian plaster finish

03

Venetian Plaster

Polished lime stucco with the depth and luminosity of marble. Built up in micro-layers and burnished by hand to a soft sheen.

The Craft

Artisan applying mineral plaster

A surface is built in days, not minutes.

Mineral finishes ask for patience. We prepare the substrate, lay a primer coat, then build the surface in three or four passes — sanding, burnishing and sealing between each. The result is a wall that breathes, ages, and belongs to the room.
