In this special lookbook sponsored by natural finishes brand Clayworks, we've selected 10 interiors from our archives that feature walls finished with the brand's clay plaster.
Clay finishes are a healthy, breathable alternative to paints or wallpaper on internal walls and ceilings. Naturally pigmented and free of toxic ingredients, they are made of natural materials, do not require painting and are compostable.
Clayworks' plaster finishes are manufactured in Cornwall, England. Here are 10 homes, restaurants and offices that showcase their products.
