Plaster finish in a powder room.




American clay plaster is a wonderful natural finish for a room such as Nancy's powder room. She wanted just a hint of warm color so I added a small amount of pigment to the loma.




The plaster adds an enchanting atmosphere of old world charm and substance. It makes you feel good. My camera can not do justice to the texture and subtle gleam of minerals in this lovely plaster formulated in the American Southwest.

Vibrant Color


Nancy already had some rich golden hues on the walls of her condo. She added new bamboo flooring and got her fireplace trimmed with tiles and wood. I suggested a dark teracotta accent for the chimney, toned down the yellow just a bit, and we found the perfect complementary green for the stairwell.
