Lanercost Barn Retrofit

A charming barn in Lanercost, converted into the kitchen of a new house. We used our special plaster pump to spray the internal walls with Diathonite Thermactive cork-lime insulating plaster. Argatherm lime-based finishing plaster was then applied, and the surface finished with breathable paint to give a stunning look.
