TADELAKT-THE FINEST OF LIME PLASTERS.



Tadelakt is an ancient plastering technique known by Europeans and North Africans for more than a thousand years. Originally used for waterproofing cisterns and steam baths (also known as hamams), people soon discovered its irresistible aesthetic qualities and started to use it as a decorative finish.
Tadelakt creates a surface with a lot of depth, a subtle shine and a natural color variation depending on how it is applied and polished. The plaster has an infinite number of ways in which it can be finished, slightly undulated from being polished the traditional way with a stone, distressed, slightly pitted, multicolored, stenciled, decorated with sgraffito techniques, or completely uniform. One of the remarkable characteristics is that however much life the surface has, it always feels like the finest silk to touch. as always we use product from Stucco Italiano because it gives our costumers the finest results.
We ask you, our customers to tell us what you want , what is your dream.
Please come and visit our booth at the Four Corners Green Living Expo, on the 18th and 19th of april 2009, at the Durango fairgrounds Colorado.(For those of you who live in Telluride, please come down, it is only a two hour drive)

We are looking forward to seeing you.
Lars Hansen.
