With nearly 400 colors of limewash paint, the possibilities are endless. Each hue is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, seamlessly adapting to various exterior surfaces like brick, render, stone, and concrete. Our paint's natural pigments and unique ability to patina ensure that it blends harmoniously with the building's natural surroundings, making it the perfect choice for exterior applications.

Our Creative Director and Co-Founder, Bronwyn, has a penchant for earthy tones like umber and ochre when it comes to exterior design, particularly in warm climes. “Transforming a home into a sanctuary, enveloped by the colours of nature, is a matter very close to our hearts,” she expresses. Alternatively, to capture that Mediterranean Greek island look, a crisp white offers a contemporary finish. To demonstrate the versatility of these colors we’ve curated some exterior inspiration for modern properties in sunny locales.

"I love an exterior in a dirty peachy pink tone like ‘Medlar’ surrounded by sunset and sea, it reminds me of life in Fremantle, Australia."

Grey limewash paint works well with everything and can be a really versatile shade. It's especially good on walls in locations that have a lot of natural light, like Australia, as it pulls back on the warmth of brown-toned neutrals. And of course, like all of our limewash paint,  our selection of grey paints are all made from natural pigments.

“Greys are especially good internally in Australia because of how much natural light we have - it pulls back on the warmth of the brown-toned neutrals.”

"Inky colours are so beautifully moody and look wonderful with any colour. Bauwerk Slate is a gorgeous rich grey perfect for creating a cosy feel in bedrooms or lounges."

With Bauwerk Colour lime wash paint any wall that is rendered, brick or block can easily be transformed. Simply remove any surface dust and paint straight on the masonry. No undercoat or sealer is needed in this instance–just two or three quick applications of your chosen colour.

There is no need to worry about scraping back previous layers of Bauwerk paint as they do not blister or peel off. Instead the painted finish will just wear thinner and acquire a lovely patina as time goes on. You can either just touch up your original colour, or change up the mood by switching up your colour.

Bauwerk Colour lime wash paints are natural and will not contaminate your ground water, or harm your soil.

There's no reason you can't treat your exterior walls like you do other decor items-switching up colours as seasons change or tastes change.
