Great feature in the recent “Preservation in Print” magazine by the Preservation Resource Center here in New Orleans in their “Green Issue.” They highlight the Seignouret-Brulatour House, the Historic New Orleans Collection’s expansion on Royal St. in the French Quarter. This part of their complex is a “highly energy-efficient campus that elegantly blends historic preservation with green building practices.” We had the honor of redoing the famed “Organ Room,” the only space to see the original late-nineteenth/early twentieth century finishes recreated and restored. It is a centerpiece of the museum.
The work combined our experience and care in working in historic spaces along with our contemporary product knowledge. Though true to the original look and feel, all the materials we used were LEED certified, green, and durable. Here, you can see a shot of part of the room looking in from one of the doorways. Also, among several other elements we delivered (check out the post on our website), you can see a close-up of the mantle ornamentation. We cleaned, restored, and painted the entire mantle bringing it back to its original glory! Whether a resident or visitor, be sure to visit The Historic New Orleans Collection. It is an amazing and quintessential gateway to our city and region!

Congratulations!! Awesome work and recognition!!🎉
Here is Day 3 of 3 (please see our previous two posts for more!) of our recent Roman Clay plaster project in this Uptown, New Orleans historic residence. You can see how the earthy, yet warm color of the plaster terrifically compliments the stained wood crown molding and wood paneled door. Here, we are wrapping things up by painting the trim. The result was a beautiful look in the dining room with all the elements of the space coming together with the plaster on the walls and ceiling!

Hey All – Here is Day 2 of 3 (please see our previous post) from our recent plaster project in Uptown, New Orleans. We’ve delivered a beautiful plaster finish in this historic residence’s dining room on the walls and ceiling. In this shot, we’re applying the second coat of the Roman clay plaster. So much of the result stems from both the timing of the coats as well as understanding the color process when tinting the plaster and utilizing multiple applications. It takes skill and experience to create the desired texture, look, and finished color when everything is said and done! More tomorrow…

Hey All – Here is Day 1 of a great plaster project we completed recently in a beautiful historic Uptown residence in New Orleans! The owner wanted an organic feel that complimented the stained wood look of the crown molding and wood paneled door found in their dining room. We set out using a Roman clay plaster on the space’s ceiling and walls. Here, we are applying the first coat! Stay tuned for much more…

Here’s a shot of a great current residential project in an Uptown, New Orleans historic home. We’re delivering a beautiful plaster finish on the fireplace wall in the master bedroom that is meant to be the centerpiece of the room. It’s a lime plaster application where we are giving it a distressed look by applying layers of lime wash (seen in the pic) to achieve the desired effect. In the end, the color will be lighter in appearance and the wall will have a stunning, flowing feel. It takes expert hands to get the timing and treatment just right to achieve the desired result!

A feature wall or area can transform your residence or business. Grab visitors with your vision, your inspiration, or your brand! Here, we delivered an elegant reception area for a local dentist’s office. We expertly combined paint and plaster to create this flowing and striking reception desk and wall presentation. Thanks to our friend and interior designer. @clairelewisdesigns, for bringing us in on this great project! Click the link in our bio to learn more!
