Venetian Plaster Porcelain

Venetian Plaster Porcelain: The Art of Monolithic Detailing

The Venetian Plaster collection is a masterful translation of an ancient wall finish into the versatile and enduring medium of full-bodied porcelain. Capturing the timeless soul of authentic Italian plaster, this series is a study in quiet sophistication. Its surface is defined by a chalky matte finish and soft, trowel-like undulations that interact subtly with glancing light, creating an atmosphere of serene, minimalist warmth. To the touch, it offers a fine, granular texture that is both raw and incredibly refined.

While the aesthetic is one of soft, hand-applied plaster, the true genius of this collection lies in its full-bodied technical construction. The delicate off-white tone is not a mere surface glaze; the pigment runs through the entire body of the porcelain. This allows the material to be treated with the same architectural rigor as natural stone. It unlocks the ability to create perfect mitred edges for seamless corners and custom-fabricated details—such as integrated shelving and niches—with polished, exposed edges that eliminate the need for traditional metal or plastic trims.

A Comprehensive Architectural Toolkit

Conceived as a complete system for the built environment, the Venetian Plaster collection is available in an expansive range of formats, allowing for total rhythmic continuity across a project:

• Slab & Large Format: 600x1200mm, 600x600mm, and 300x600mm. These formats are ideal for creating expansive, uninterrupted planes of texture on both floors and walls.

• The Subway: 75x300mm. A classic proportion that introduces a traditional masonry rhythm while maintaining the soft plaster finish.

• The Mosaic: 50x50mm Square. A tactile intervention for shower floors or curved vertical surfaces.

• The KitKat (Finger Mosaic): 30x300mm. A linear, rhythmic detail for high-impact feature walls and cabinetry cladding.

• Michael’s Note: "This is the professional’s choice for a truly 'quiet' bathroom. Because it is full-bodied, we can mitre every corner to create a monolithic look that feels like it was carved from a single block of plaster. I recommend using the 600x1200mm slabs for the floor and walls, and introducing the KitKat strips in the niches to play with shadow and scale."
