About Plaster, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book shows that the potential of plaster goes far beyond current application practice and the wide range of design options plastering offers for the planning and implementation of building facades. Using photos, detailed drawings, and facade cuts on a scale of 1: 20, the publication documents 18 buildings using new and traditional plastering techniques. Featuring interviews with experts in architecture and craftsmanship, who share their insights into plaster from production to application. They also relate the history of rough plasters and the complex interplay between plaster and paint. In addition, ten recipes and an illustrated glossary offer a practical guide to produce an array of plasters, including lime marsh and scratch plaster.
