Stucco Antico is the New Bare Cement
Well... not yet, or else we'd be really fed up with it. If you're OD'ing on cement, take a look at this, a technique dating back from Renaissance Italy (and inspired by even older techniques) that offers the kind of painterly abstraction that we like in bare cement but with an added smoothness, depth and richness. Made from natural ingredients and applied by hand, the result is both timeless and elegant without being too rough or flat (like a plain, painted wall).

Currently, the only people we know who can do it here in Bangkok are Jean-Jacques and Carole Ferron from Modern Stone Age. 08-9048-8451 or caroleferron@mac.com.
