Spotlight On Texture ~

 

This layered glaze application was designed to 
   highlight focal areas in the space, while adding
   much needed color and interest to the stark white 
   walls
. The treatment is soft and diffused, and
   continues
uninterrupted throughout the L-shaped

   room,
creating an airy, yet surprisingly cozy, retreat.
  
The resulting space feels warm and bright, despite
  
the shortage of natural light.


Other faux
 texture effects include faux-fabrics such as
    leather,
denim and linen, or faux-stone effects such
    as granite, marble, slate, brick and stucco. 
Plank
    boards and/or wood graining are also available.


Actual texture applications include Venetian plaster, 
    raised or relief patterns and impressions.

Painted texture effects, such as this “Suede” technique (detail view shown above) can seamlessly transform any ordinary wall surface, creating rich, tonal depth in an unlimited spectrum of color possibilities.

Strategic use of painted texture can elegantly unify the varying ceiling heights, different sizes & shapes of window & door openings, and other contrasting elements in the adjoining spaces of an open floor-plan.

Surface preparation and the amount of paint applied is the same as that for normal interior wall painting, leaving original wall surfaces and underlying texture treatments undamaged.

To cover, simply repaint!
