OUR APPROACH

Living naturally.
With a feel for materials.

Fine sand in plaster. Timber with a history. Soft earthy colours on the walls. We love materials that retain a sense of their origins and choose them to suit your home.

CRAFTSMANSHIP FOR YOUR HOME

Natural renovation.
Room by room.

Fresh colour, textured walls or a carefully planned wall system, tailored to your home.

Clay & lime plaster

Subtle or expressive textures give your walls character. We match the plaster system to the underlying surface.

NATURALLY VERSATILE

Earth on the walls.
Warmth in your home.

Clay, lime and natural insulation offer many possibilities. We consider their composition and suitability for your building.

Natural. Locally sourced where possible.

Where possible, we source suitable natural building materials locally to keep transport distances short.

We choose the right products together with you.

ClayEARTHY & VERSATILE

Earthy colours and versatile textures for interiors, matched to the surface and how the room is used.

Material selection needs particular care in areas exposed to moisture.

LimeMINERAL & DISTINCTIVE

Mineral finishes from subtle to expressive. The build-up depends on your wall and the finish you want.

Not every existing paint finish is suitable for direct application.

Natural insulation materialsCAREFULLY DESIGNED

Wood fibre, hemp and other natural insulation materials: the right solution depends on the building, moisture behaviour and junctions.

Suitability can only be assessed after examining the particular building element.

GOOD TO KNOW

Your questions.
A few helpful answers.

Can you renovate just one room?

Yes. Whether it is one room or several, we agree the scope and timing with you.

Can clay plaster be applied to any wall?

That depends on the underlying surface, existing coatings and how the room is used. We assess the preparation and plaster system required.

How much does natural renovation cost?

The area, existing surface and desired finish determine the work involved. We provide an individual quotation after a site visit.

Are natural materials always free from harmful substances?

Not automatically. Composition and product information are what matter. We discuss any specific requirements before selecting materials.

When is internal insulation appropriate?

When the building and insulation system are compatible. Moisture and junctions must be assessed beforehand, with specialist design where needed.

Which areas do you cover?

Dessau-Roßlau and the surrounding area. Simply tell us where your project is located.
