In the final stages,
of detailing borders for this double vault  Intonachino ceiling.


Creating the border for detailing the arch.

Due to the height and two levels of the vaults. the moisture and drying temperatures varied - Intonachino in the process of drying.

Borders with Beeswax sealers, lending to a very organic and Islamic/Eastern appearance.

...Next: everything goes back in place, new carpets, lights and furniture.

Last week we started on a larger project, a client requested a Lime Plaster ceiling installation.
Not a problem, but it is rather challenging, since the architecture of the ceiling consists of 2 barrel vaults, 22' high!
We are applying several coats of Intonachino Lime Plaster in a distressed effect.

Some pictures of the work in progress - oH, yes that is not our work on the ceiling below, that is the lovely wonder if the early ninety's, sponge painting!

What is cooking these days...

Heat and Wall Glazing

Traditionally this is recipe for a disaster, but no longer the case with Golden Acrylic Proceed Love the stuff!

It is the dead of summer ( 33ºC/92º) in Vancouver and for the past 7 days we have been glazing hundreds of square feet without hitch, in a restaurant La Cucina.
Finishing up this week, I will have some finished shots of the Northern Italian wall finishes next week.... until then a very cool ciao!
