PAINTING · CLAY AND LIME FINISHES
A consciously chosenliving environment.
We carry out high-quality painting work as well as clay and lime finishes in homes and commercial spaces across Tallinn and Harju County.
Clay and lime finishes are an investment in timeless aesthetics and a healthy indoor climate.
CLAY & LIME FINISHES
Quality hand-applied clay and lime finishes — natural materials that make your space warm, breathable and truly one of a kind.
Step 01
First meeting and consultation
We visit the space and look at the light together. We choose the material and tone, agree the technical details and send a clear quotation.
Step 02
Filling and plastering
A good finish starts with the substrate. We do the painting work, filling, plastering and priming until the surface is smooth, sound and even — exactly what clay and lime need to last.
Step 03
Clay and lime finishes
Clay paint, clay plaster, limewash, lime plaster and marmorino are applied by hand, layer by layer. We finish with a walkthrough together and written care instructions.
Clay and lime finishes help balance room humidity, support a healthy indoor climate and inhibit mould growth.

Guide
Clay vs lime: which finish to choose?
Clay plaster and limewash are both natural mineral finishes, but they behave differently in light, moisture and over time. Here is a short comparison to help you decide.
Guide
Conventional paint vs natural paint: what is the difference?
Conventional and natural paints may look similar at first glance, but their composition, breathability and effect on indoor climate are very different. Here is a clear comparison to help you decide.
Healthy indoor climate
VOCs – what you should know
VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, are gases released into the air by paints, varnishes and building materials. Most of them do not disappear in a couple of days but keep off-gassing for months. Natural clay and lime finishes are one of the simplest ways to reduce them at home.
Architecture and materials
Why are architects increasingly choosing clay and lime materials?
Architects and interior architects choose clay and lime finishes because they work on three levels at once: they give the surface living light, keep the building fabric breathable, and answer client expectations for a healthy indoor climate and a low carbon footprint.
Healthy indoor climate
Why does indoor air affect our health?
We spend about 90% of our time indoors and breathe close to 15,000 litres of air a day. That makes indoor air quality one of the most direct health factors at home — and the wall surface plays a bigger part in it than you might think.
Healthy home
Which interior finish suits allergy sufferers?
Natural mineral finishes are the best choice for allergy sufferers because they release no volatile organic compounds, balance humidity and do not encourage mould. Clay paint and limewash are two practical options.
FAQ
How long does installation take?
The exact time depends on surface size, number of layers and room humidity. A small project is usually done in a few days, larger rooms can take a week or more. Drying time between coats is also important for an even, durable result.
Which rooms are clay and lime suitable for?
Both clay and lime finishes work well in living rooms, bedrooms and on ceilings. Clay is ideal where warmth, matte calm and humidity regulation matter. Lime is also beautiful in these spaces and, being more durable and moisture-resistant, is especially good for kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and staircases.
How do I maintain the surface?
Both surfaces are low-maintenance: remove dust with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth. Small stains and damages can usually be repaired locally without redoing the whole wall. Avoid aggressive cleaners, abrasive scrubbing and constant water exposure.
Is lime finish suitable for bathrooms?
Yes, lime tolerates bathroom humidity and steam better than clay thanks to its high pH and excellent vapour permeability. It is still important to avoid direct water jets and ensure adequate ventilation so the surface can dry.
