Tadelakt Tub

Strength – Function – Beauty

A hallmark of Roman architecture during the renaissance. Roman Architect Vitruvius highlighted this concept in the first century. He built upon the ancient Greeks’ emphasis of harmony in a structure. His work continues to be studied to this day.

Vitruvio Pollione

“Plaster must be made of lime and sand, and be applied in such a manner that it adheres well to the wall and provides a smooth finish”

– Vitruvius circa 15 BCE “De Achitecura”

Venetian Plaster

Venetian plaster

Venetian Plaster shares similar components but is characterized by its finer finish, allowing for transparency between layers. This refinement yields a brilliant polish achieved through high compression with a hard stone or steel trowel.

Tadelakt

Tadelakt is a completely natural and eco-friendly finish known for its water resistance and durability.

Microcement

Microcement floor

Microcement comprises a blend of natural ingredients combined with acrylic and latex resulting in a finish that resembles natural plaster and is particularly suited for high traffic flooring.
