Of the many ways to introduce texture to the walls of your home, Venetian plaster wall textures are certainly one of the most elegant yet long-lasting finishes.
A combination of material and application techniques produces a tactile quality, but unlike traditional paint finishes, the liquid paste, putty-like material is applied to surfaces using a trowel and brush spatula in numerous different ways to create natural depth. super-thick layers.
These layers result in a significantly thicker end product resembling genuine stone. This also means the surface is highly durable—so much so that you can even use it outside.

Venetian plaster wall textures are also excellent for creating a lived-in, mineral-rich effect on the walls that may be somewhat more challenging to achieve with other types of paint.
Designers adore it for its ability to infuse previously cold spaces with warmth because of the micro-variations of colour that generate movement and depth.
