Understand the substrate
Understand what is already there before deciding what can be applied.
Atelier
Material brings
design into being.
At Stucco Vivo, plaster is part of the space: colour in conversation with materials, relief with light, and the finish with its intended use.
Our work
From intention
to surface.
We guide the selection, sampling and application of each finish.
We begin by understanding the space and the existing surface. We propose finishes, refine the colour and technique, and define the preparation with the application team.
Traditional lime plasters sit alongside contemporary systems for specific requirements. We select each for the needs of the project: a mineral appearance alone does not determine composition or suitability for every use.

The hand gives character.
Preparation gives consistency.
What guides each project
Considered choices.
Care in every layer.
A finish should work from a distance and up close, on the first day and in everyday use.
Approve the sample
Confirm colour, texture and sheen with a physical reference.
Respect the craft
Control the application while preserving the character of hand-finished work.
Consider the use
Specify protection and maintenance for each space.
In conversation
With those who design.
With those who will live there.
We work with architects, interior designers, contractors and private clients. A good reference can start the conversation; a site visit, sample and preparation turn it into a solution for that setting.
