Painting with lime,
exterior facing and decor

From limewashing to patina, from simple flat colors to architectural decor, beyond its function of protecting a facade (stone, plaster), the limewashes produce well-designed facades whose image is based on architectural concepts.

This course will give you the opportunity, after covering the theory of materials and proportions, to put to use decors that are composed of images of cornerstones, lower wall bases, artificial stone and friezes. |
Program
