Marmorino, stucco veneziano or tadelakt?
Marmorino is the calmest of the three. Matt to silky, with a fine grain you can only just feel. It suits a classic pair of connecting rooms as well as a sleek modern interior.
Stucco veneziano is smoother and glossier, almost like polished marble. Tadelakt comes from Morocco and is rubbed closed with a smooth stone and black soap. It repels water, so it works on a shower wall or around a basin.
How the work goes
First we level the surface and apply a bonding coat. Then come the coats of decorative plaster, with a day of drying time between each one. A 15 m² living room wall takes us four to five working days. That sounds like a long time, but the drying time is exactly what separates a wall that stains after three years from one that gets better with age.
We mix the colour ourselves, with natural pigments. You choose from samples in our workshop. Then we put a test panel of half a square metre on your wall first.
