CURRENT TRENDS:

When most people think of faux finishes, sponging and rag rolling come to mind. Today, these finishes have fallen out of favor in light of the trend toward upscale finishes, where layers of subtle texture and color create depth and beauty on formerly dull, “vanilla” walls.

BEAUTIFUL CHOICES:

Decorative finishes may include glazes, textures, Venetian plaster, patina, metallic, marbling, Tuscan, crackle effects, and more. These finishes are applied to walls, ceilings, and woodwork in layers and it is these layers, as with a pearl, that help create the depth, color, and beauty.

ADDING VALUE:

Most customers choose faux finishing because they want to invest in their home and they value the benefits over wallpaper and paint. They want a high-end designer-look that coordinates perfectly with their interior furnishings and adds value to their home; a custom-made finish that makes their home feel uniquely theirs.

TRANSFORMING:

The right faux finish can do more than make a room look beautiful, it can also create a dramatic, sophisticated, or relaxing living space. Certain finishes can make a room feel larger or make a two-story foyer feel warm and inviting.

CUSTOM-MADE:

Professional faux finishers work with interior designers and/or homeowners. They will listen carefully to achieve your vision for the room you are redecorating. Based upon your desires, colors, and budget, a faux finisher will show you their portfolio of finishes and may recommend specific ones. Custom-made samples can be created to achieve the exact look and coloration you desire.

INVITING LIVING SPACES:

Your walls are an important part of your home. They compliment your room like a frame and matting compliment a painting. Your newly faux finished room will add value and create an inviting living space to enjoy for many years.
