Each dot is a project we have installed. Turn the globe and click a dot to see where it is.
A finish is chosen the way a fine fabric is chosen, by how it looks and how it feels under the hand. These five are the ones our clients name first.

Venetian plaster is tinted to any of our 48 house colours or any NCS reference before it leaves the studio. Tadelakt and microcement come in our 48 house colours. Limewash comes in its maker’s own range, and every other finish in its own listed colours.
Colours developed in this studio and held on record, for Venetian plaster, tadelakt and microcement.
Give us any NCS reference and we tint Venetian plaster to it. It is the standard most specifiers already work in.
A cushion, a tile, a flake of the old paint off the wall. If you can hold it, we can usually match it.
Not sure which finish suits the room? Order Venetian plaster samples in any of our 48 colours or an NCS reference, tadelakt and microcement samples in our 48 colours, and samples of artificial rock, metallic paints and limewash in their own colours. See the depth in the room before you commit.

Hands on Venetian plaster training at our centres in Birmingham, London and Manchester, 10am to 5pm. Every course is capped at six seats, so our tutors can focus on each student. Students travelling from Oman can ask us to arrange airport or station pickup. Dates fill quickly.
Three full days on the trowel. Substrate prep, base coats, and your first complete Venetian plaster walls in the classic finishes, from bucket to burnish.
Four days of advanced craft. Artificial rock, textured marmorino, vein work and acrylic polish plastering, with tinting, coloured waxes and colour blending.
A working master to yourself for three days. We’ll teach you anything you’d like, so the course is completely tailored to your needs.
Not every wall needs to be your first attempt. Our own artisans survey, specify and install decorative finishes anywhere in Oman.
View Our InstallationsSince 2021 we have sourced our lime putty from the Veneto and aged it properly, because a wall should outlive its owner. And for wet rooms, floors and hard working commercial spaces, we carry tadelakt, microcement and modern finishes chosen with the same care.
Every batch is tested by our own applicators before it ships. If we wouldn't trowel it onto a client's wall, it doesn't leave the warehouse.
The work starts in Birmingham under another name. Inside the first year it reaches London, Manchester, Kent and Surrey.
Three new members join the studio, giving us the hands to take on larger projects without dropping the standard of the finish.
The Academy opens its doors, and a supply agreement is signed with our materials producer. Quality secured at the source.
The workshop makes its name in commercial decorative finishes, quietly supplying fellow applicators and proving every material on its own projects before it went on sale.
Tested on the job, refined and trusted by the trade first, our own materials go on open sale to the public.
Five years of work, one supply line and one school, finally under a single name, Zavoré. The full range, the Academy and the Colour Library in one place, and the next wall always ahead.

Nine times out of ten it is not the material. The substrate, the coats and the cure decide whether a wall stays quiet for decades.
