Why Plain Work?

A living finish. Not a coating. Our pure mineral Lime Paint is breathable, antimicrobial, and carbon-absorbing — the only surface system engineered to thrive in Singapore and Malaysia's tropical humidity.

Breathable. Releases humidity rather than trapping it. No peeling, no bubbling.

Antimicrobial. Natural high-pH alkalinity resists mould and bacteria — no biocides needed.

Carbon-Absorbing. Cures by re-mineralising and absorbing CO₂ from indoor air.

Zero-VOC & Ethical. No plastics, no resins, no animal by-products. Safe for nurseries and green-rated homes.

What We Do

Architectural Finishes, Specified & Applied

Lime Paint

Breathable mineral surface systems that allow walls to release moisture rather than trap it.

  • Best for: living spaces, feature walls
  • Not suitable for: wet areas, heavy abrasion
Specified only after surface assessment. Architectural Mineral Studio →

Lime Plaster

Hand-applied mineral plasters creating depth, tactility, and architectural presence.

  • Best for: statement walls
  • Samples mandatory
  • Natural variation is inherent
Lime Plaster Singapore →

Access & Scaffolding

Certain projects require scaffolding, boom lifts, or access systems due to height or site constraints. These are assessed and quoted separately. They are not included by default.

Material Reality

Our work involves hand application, material behaviour, curing time, and natural variation. Exact replication, rushed timelines, uncontrolled substrates, and unsuitable environments are not part of our process.

We reserve the right to decline projects where conditions or expectations are incompatible with the selected system.

Common Questions

What to know before you enquire

Is Lime Paint suitable for Singapore’s humidity?

Yes, when specified correctly. However, surface systems are not a substitute for structural waterproofing. We are not liable for failures caused by existing building leaks or rising damp.

What is your refund policy?

As our systems are bespoke and hand-applied, projects are strictly non-refundable once surface preparation or application has commenced.

Do you provide warranty for touch-ups?

We provide a handover warranty for application defects. Any damage post-handover (moving, cleaning, other contractors) is strictly chargeable at current rates.

Can you match reference images exactly?

No. Reference images are for tone direction only. Natural variation, tonal shifts, and hand strokes are material properties and are not classified as defects.

What if I want a perfectly uniform finish?

Mineral and artisanal finishes are inherently non-uniform. If you require zero variation, our systems are not suitable for your project.

Is scaffolding included?

No. Scaffolding, boom lifts, and height access systems are assessed and quoted as separate, non-negotiable line items.

Do you do 'normal' resurfacing?

We do not provide Level 5 Dustless Resurfacing. We execute architectural resurfacing Systems which include moisture testing and specific priming. If you want a cheap 'lick of resurfacing', we are not the right partner.

Surface systems require judgement before execution.
