Hoxton x Bauwerk: A New Collection of Limewash Paints, Influenced by European Cities

We’re continuously on the hunt for environment-friendly, non-petroleum-derived paints, so we were pleased to (re) find Bauwerk Colour, makers of limewash paints. The business was established in Australia in the early aughts by husband-wife group Andreas and Bronywn Ridel, who set out to develop the world’s most stunning natural paint. Twenty years later on, Bauwerk Colour produces zero-V.O.C. limewashes utilizing clay, minerals, and natural pigments and stays dedicated to sustainability.

” We make use of an easy essential cycle of earth, fire, water, and air,” Bronwyn states. “Limewash is a thin layer of limestone that dries on your wall by taking in co2 from the air, simply as plants do. With a PH level of 14 and anti-bacterial qualities, it is devoid of biocides, formaldehydes, and preservatives.” (You can find out more about it in Renovation 101 and this DO IT YOURSELF)
