Lime
Mineral wall finishes, breathable, eight samples.
Lime is a wall finish, not a floor one, and it does not go in shower areas. In exchange it is breathable, mineral, and it changes with the light through the day in a way paint does not.
The eight samples split into two groups: the full coverage finishes such as Archi+ Pietra, and the Materiaviva family, where what changes is the aggregate in the mix. Pumice, ground terracotta, shell, cork, hemp, mosaic flakes: same binder, different grain and colour.
Where it is used
- Living area and bedroom walls
- Bathrooms, outside the shower area
- Hotels and natural building
- Historic buildings, for breathability
Technical data sheets
Thicknesses, foot traffic times, underfloor heating compatibility and certifications are on the maker’s own site, where they are always up to date. We do not keep copies here.

CloseThe next step
It gets decided on the sample, not on the catalogue.
For every job
We prepare sample panels with the products and colours chosen for that job, and deliver them to the client or the practice. You look at them in the light of the room, not on a screen.
For repeat work
On apartment blocks, residences and hotels we build a sample wall on site, at our expense. You see the real finish on the real substrate before committing the floors.
The quickest way to get there is to meet on site: an hour, and it becomes clear what makes sense.
