Here’s a look at a recent residential renovation where we did some terrific work in this Uptown, New Orleans home. In this shot, you can see some of what we did in the kitchen (we did all the walls and the ceiling, too!) The owner wanted a rustic French provincial country look to complement the fixtures and decor. We delivered a gorgeous Marmorino plaster finish that shows some beautiful and subtle motion along with lovely depth. We also did a custom color match with the plaster. What’s more? We sealed the finish to provide protection and cleanability from kitchen stains and grease!

Here's another feature wall we did in the same Old Metairie home from our previous post, this time in the primary bathroom. We delivered a soft metallic layered strié. It gives the wall an elegant and “cooling” feel across the room.

Sometimes all it takes is a feature wall to make your space pop! One thing we love delivering for our clients is a feature wall based on their inspiration that truly transforms a space! Here, in this Old Metairie residential powder room, we consulted with our client and took their inspiration images to create a unique, striking faux finish. We created a soft metallic “crocodile” look that shows off great texture and depth.

Here's a finished shot (please see our previous post) of our residential Venetian plaster ceiling finish. The bold and highly mirrored finish adds dramatic elegance to the spacious dining room. Though the picture doesn’t do it justice, you can see how the abundant natural light beautifully reflects off the plaster. The striking appearance is further enhanced by the ceiling bays. Extensive hand-burnishing with a large dose of key timing throughout the application (all while working on a ceiling!) allowed us to achieve this look from the lime-based plaster.

Here's an in-progress shot of a gorgeous finish we are delivering on a high-end residential project in the New Orleans area. It’s lime-based Venetian plaster featured on the home’s dining room ceiling interspersed between several ceiling bays. The final coat has been applied and now we are hand-compressing the plaster to achieve the desired mirrored look that you can see is starting to manifest. This takes great skill, timing, and patience to achieve.
It’s a challenge yet a joy to create a finish like this when working on a ceiling! We’ll have more on this project deliverable soon!

Here's another look at our recent project in Baton Rouge for Kenneth Brown Design. This is the primary bedroom in this residential remodel. We used lime paint on the walls and ceiling. We also used mineral paint on the vertically slatted wall and baseboards. Overall, we delivered a cohesive look that boasts subtle, organic movement giving the space a beautiful and calming feel.

It’s always a pleasure to work with the inimitable Kenneth Brown Design! This fantastic project is a residential remodel in Baton Rouge, where we delivered a few elements. Here, you can see the amazing fireplace surround. The design is impressive and serves as the focal point of the living room. We used lime plaster, with a bit of a heavier grain, to create a noticeable, striking texture. Skill and attention to detail were a must to achieve this look on the scalloped surface. Shout out to Gator Millworks for the tremendous woodwork!

Here’s another element we delivered for this terrific residential new construction project in the Lakeview neighborhood of New Orleans. We shared the spectacular feature wall in the great room a while back. Here on the dining room’s feature wall, we did a clean Venetian plaster look that demonstrates beautiful motion and perfectly complements the home’s open space and modern, clean appearance.
