Polished Plaster London

Polished Plastering London

 

Polished Plaster has been used in London for quite sometime now and used to great effect in a wide range of environments. From the high-end residential properties to classy bars and restaurants, where ever you are in London you are likely only a stone's throw from a hidden polished plaster interior. This might be a feature wall in an office building, or a vast expanse of polished plaster hidden deep in London's infamous residential basements, perhaps sitting above a swimming pool mirroring the reflections of the water beneath.

Marmo Stucco's View On Polished Plaster London

Here at Marmo, we are keen on keeping on top of the latest polished plaster trends, whether it be a 'colour of the year' or textures that our architects are pioneering. We like to know and keep up to date with these trends so they can be incorporated into our growing range of Venetian Plaster finishes and colours.

 

It is no surprise that the majority of our polished plaster applications can be found in London. With 90% of our enquiries coming from London based architectural practices or construction companies, it really does seem that London is set to stay on top of its game regarding architecture and design, and with it we are sure that polished plaster will continue to be used and incorporated into designs.

 

 

 

Our Polished Plaster London Based Projects

When we say that 'you are only a stone's throw away' from a polished plaster interior in London, we believe this is true. In fact, it is highly likely you are only a short distance away from one of Marmo's London-based Polished Plaster installations.

 

We have worked all over London, from Central London and beyond, working in landmarks such as "The Gherkin" or St. Marys Axe, creating a one off bespoke application for a sky high private members lounge, to office lobbies in Mayfair, and luxury department stores such as Harrods, Selfridges and Wesfield.

 

You can be sure to find our polished plaster close by when walking around the famous city.

The Royal Opera House, London - Pitted Polished Plaster

Marmo applied 250m2 of our pitted polished plaster finish to the newly renovated foyer to the Lindbury Theatre, which can be accessed from Bow St. The areas are now open to the public and are certainly something special!

Samsung Experience Store London - Concrete Effect Polished Plaster

Marmo Stucco created a bespoke concrete polished plaster finish and colour especially for this project and were involved in the early design phases, working closely with the designers and Samsung to develop a finish that met the expectations and standards required for this special project. 
 
This is one of Samsungs "experience' stores: "London's newest flagship playground has offically opened where customers can play, learn and find solutions." We covered approximately 250m2 of wall space as well as cylindrical columns with our tweaked Distressed Concrete plaster finish, to which we applied a colourwash to enhance the finish and provide drama and depth. 

The Sun Inn Splendour, Notting Hill - Polished Plaster

The Sun Inn Splendour was undergoing a quick refurbishment just before Christmas. We were contracted in to apply our Distressed Concrete CW polished plaster, finish but in a more natural aged plaster colour tone to match the pub's wider design aesthetic. Our concrete finishes are not just available in concrete tones, they can be created using any colours desirable!

This is a hugely effective finish, especially when we apply our "colourwash" to the polished plaster which is generally a darker tone to enhance all the textured area of the finish.

 

What does polished plaster look like? Where do we start with this question? Polished plaster, also known as Venetian Plaster, can take many forms. Originally created to emulate different types of stone, mainly marble, the majority of our polished plaster finishes look like natural stone. From highly polished marble effects to more textured pitted limestone looks, the possibilities seem endless.

 

As the years have passed by, creative artisans in our industry are constantly looking at evolving the different looks and finishes usually following the design trends of the time. There are different types of plasters used to create the different polished plaster finishes. From pre-mixed putties to powder based plasters that can be enhanced by using different sized marble grains. One of the most notorious shifts has been companies creating a range of concrete finishes, as the concrete trend took off in the industry around 5-7 years ago and is still going strong to this day.

 

The most recent trend that has emerged has been the use of liquid metal finishes and metallic waxes, shifting the look away from natural stone but still staying true to the natural aesthetics of the raw material used to create the finishes.

 

We are often sent images of different types of stone of surfaces that a client would like us to match and this is what provides us and others with the creativity to further evolve the look of polished plaster, pushing the boundaries and changing the techniques used to create something that looks truly special.
