Tadelakt

Tadelakt is an ancient Moroccan plastering technique that creates a smooth, waterproof, and durable surface using lime-based plaster. Applied in thin layers, it is polished to a glossy finish with stones or special tools, resulting in a beautiful, seamless look. Tadelakt is often used on walls, bathrooms, and tubs because of its water resistance and unique, tactile texture. Its natural ingredients and craftsmanship give it eco-friendly qualities, and it can be colored with natural pigments. The process requires skill but produces a sophisticated, luminous surface that ages gracefully, adding character and elegance to spaces.
