Hi Aaron…love that bathroom with the Tadelakt plaster finish. Not only the color, but the scent of damp plaster appeals to me…earthy, clean….sun on plaster walls after a downpour.
I checked out Twitter and I may Get Involved. It sounds like a grownup sort of connection. Thanks for the tip and thanks for your recommendation. Jennifer
