Often mystically transfigured in Germany, clay-lime plaster is very common in other parts of the world. Its properties make the clay-lime plaster valuable for both indoor and outdoor use. In this workshop with Benito Steen from Arizona, you will learn the basics and subtleties of working and designing with this extraordinary plaster made of clay and lime.

This workshop with Benito Steen is all about plastering techniques and mixtures based on materials such as lime, clay, sand and straw, in particular about so-called lime-stabilized clay mixtures (“lime clay”).
