BEFORE/AFTER Home Renovation with CLAY, LIME and TADELAKT Walls — Ep. 148

For the past year, we've been busy on renovating an old nursery office-turned tiny home that we're calling the "Meadow House." Given some of our choices, it's been a process, but we're really thrilled with how those renovation and design choices are turning out. For one, we took the garish pink, pistachio, and lime green-painted walls and transformed them using earthen products, including clay, lime, and also a tadelakt lime process in the bathroom. We had previously trialed the clay in another old nursery office building, which we'll be turning into a chicken coop—and LOVED the look of it, so decided that we'd do that in the main rooms of the house. But given the humidity of the bathroom, we opted for limestone-based applications, including a wet-use lime process known as tadelakt that had been perfected in Morocco.

We hope you enjoy this process and transformation! We think the "before" and "after" is such a drastic difference!
