CLAY

Clay is far and away the most versatile and ecological of plaster materials. Infinitely re-workable, the range of textures and effects possible with clay finishes is almost endless.

Clay finishes have a carbon footprint of zero and are easily returned to nature when the buildings lifetime has passed. In terms of healthy home properties, clay is highly mold resistant, an amazing regulator of indoor air humidity (absorbing and releasing excess humidity easily), and clay releases negative ions into the air, boosting seratonin levels and offsetting the positive ions put off by household electronics and computers. In short, having clay inside your home makes you happier (and that's scientifically proven!)

 

While we do work with trusted fabricators of clay plasters, we also can create plasters from the earth surrounding your building - bringing the Earth inside.
