Seamless Style: Microcement and Polished Plaster

Microcement delivers a seamless 2–3 mm skin over floors, walls, stairs, and countertops, eliminating grout lines while adding subtle movement. Its waterproof systems suit wet rooms, offering contemporary continuity that visually enlarges compact, urban spaces.

Layered mineral plasters, burnished to a soft sheen, create depth that paint cannot match. The light dances across trowel marks, making even minimalist rooms feel handcrafted, luminous, and unexpectedly warm without visual clutter.

Naturally Better: Lime and Clay for Healthier Homes

High-pH lime resists mold, remains vapor-permeable, and supports healthy moisture exchange across walls. It develops a beautiful patina over years, proving that durability and beauty can co-exist in contemporary, low-tox living spaces.

Performance Matters: Acoustic, Thermal, and Moisture Control

Acoustic plasters reduce reverberation by absorbing mid-to-high frequencies, improving clarity in home offices and open-plan lounges. Readers report friendlier dinner conversations and fewer video-call echoes after upgrading ceilings and feature walls.

Performance Matters: Acoustic, Thermal, and Moisture Control

Lightweight mineral plasters with perlite or vermiculite moderate surface temperature, reducing that chilly-wall sensation. They help boost perceived warmth, especially in period homes where external insulation is difficult or visually intrusive.

Breathable lime systems and salt-resistant mixes handle bathrooms, kitchens, and coastal apartments better than many films. Share your climate and building type, and subscribe for our targeted prep guide to prevent future flaking or staining.

Color and Finish: Mineral Pigments, Matte Sheen, Soft Neutrals

Ochres, umbers, and iron oxides deliver grounded warmth without looking synthetic. These pigments shift gently with daylight, giving rooms a living quality that flat paint rarely achieves in minimalist, art-forward spaces.

Color and Finish: Mineral Pigments, Matte Sheen, Soft Neutrals

Matte lime and clay finishes reduce glare, soften shadows, and let textures breathe. They photograph beautifully, but more importantly, they feel restful, supporting mindful routines and low-light evening atmospheres at home.

Craft Meets Tech: Spraying, 3D Textures, and Digital Mockups

Airless and hopper spraying speeds base coats and large surfaces, while final passes remain hand-troweled for character. This blend keeps schedules tight and textures expressive, ideal for time-sensitive renovations and rentals.

Reusable stencils and guided trowels create parametric rhythms or quiet linen weaves. When tinted with mineral washes, the relief catches light softly, adding sophistication without overwhelming compact rooms or gallery-style interiors.

Longevity and Care: Keeping Plaster Beautiful

Everyday Cleaning, Done Right

Use soft microfiber cloths and mild, pH-appropriate cleaners. Avoid harsh abrasives that can burnish matte finishes. For microcement, follow system-specific sealant refresh schedules to preserve water resistance and subtle sheen.

Repairability and Honest Patina

Lime and clay can be spot-patched, blended, and re-washed to maintain continuity. Microcement allows localized re-sanding and resealing. Embrace gentle patina as a badge of real life, not a flaw to hide.
