Our Process
Consultation
We start with a consultation to understand your vision, style and the type of finish you are looking for. Whether it is Venetian plaster, Tadelakt, microcement or a travertine finish, we help you choose the right material and texture for your space.
Surface Preparation
Proper preparation is essential for a high-quality finish. We carefully prepare the surface to ensure the plaster adheres correctly and creates a smooth, long-lasting base.
Application
The plaster is applied by hand using traditional techniques. Multiple layers are carefully built up and worked with specialised tools to create the desired texture, depth and visual effect.
Finishing
Once the plaster has been applied, the surface is polished, sealed or treated depending on the finish. This step enhances the colour, durability and unique character of the wall.
Past Project

This decorative wall finish showcases the beauty of handcrafted Venetian plaster. The organic trowel movements create a natural texture with subtle variations in tone, giving the surface depth and character.
Warm earthy shades blend together to produce a rich, stone-like appearance that changes depending on the light. Because Venetian plaster is applied entirely by hand, every wall is unique and carries its own distinctive pattern.
This type of finish is perfect for feature walls, living rooms, luxury interiors and modern architectural spaces, where a sophisticated and timeless look is desired.
