The Finishes We Work In

Close view of polished Venetian plaster

Venetian Plaster

A lime-based finish burnished by hand in fine layers. Marble dust and mineral pigment give it genuine depth, a surface that moves with the light, develops a soft patina over time and can be re-polished for a lifetime.

Microcement

A seamless, grout-less cementitious coating applied across walls, ceilings and floors. Contemporary and continuous, it wraps a space in a single tactile surface with subtle, hand-worked movement and quiet, architectural calm.

Frequently Asked

What’s the difference between Venetian plaster and microcement?

Venetian plaster is a lime-based finish burnished in fine layers for depth and a soft sheen. Microcement is a seamless cementitious coating that wraps walls, ceilings and floors in one continuous, grout-less surface. We’ll help you choose the right one for the look and the location.

Can these finishes be used in bathrooms and wet areas?

Yes. Microcement is especially suited to bathrooms, showers and splashbacks thanks to its seamless, water-resistant surface. Venetian plaster can also be sealed for splash-prone areas. Both are applied and sealed to suit the space.

Where can the finishes be applied?

Walls, ceilings, feature walls, rangehoods, joinery and curved forms, and, with microcement, floors as well. They work across both new builds and renovations.

How durable are they, and how do they age?

Both are hard-wearing and long-lived. Rather than chipping or peeling like paint, they develop a natural patina over time and can be spot-repaired and re-burnished by hand rather than fully replaced.

How do I care for and maintain them?

Day to day, a wipe with a soft cloth and mild cleaner is all that’s needed, avoid harsh abrasives. Depending on the finish and location, an occasional reseal keeps surfaces protected. We’ll leave you with simple care guidance for your project.

Do you work on residential and commercial projects?

Both. Our work spans private homes, restaurants, showrooms, studios and healthcare spaces across Adelaide and South Australia. Whatever the scale, every surface is applied by hand.
