Theatre set for USC

Paulin Paris — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 14:11:00 -0800

Thanks to my very good friend Denise Domergue who introduced me to him, I met Director Tony Abatemarco.

I designed for him the set of "The Voysey Inheritance" by Harley Granville-Barker, adapted by David Mamet.

It was a great experience and a real pleasure for me. The all process was very smooth thanks to the help and professionalism of the USC members.

Special Finishes and color consulting

webmestre — Sat, 17 Dec 2005 02:56:00 -0800

Beyond the classical decorative finishes I have been discovering new finishes like the japanese paper Whasi
or revived forgotten techniques like the Sgrafitto or the Marquetry inlay

I have also a special attention to traditional paint recipes:
Distemper, one of the oldest paint recipe, combining chalk powder, pigment and a water base binder
Lime wash and Lime paint, a lime base coating producing a delicate aged finish
Milk paint, a traditional finish made from milk mixed with pigments, with a chalky appearance
Marmorino, a thick paste coating made from lime and marble grits
Sgrafitto, from the italian "sgraffia", to scratch) the technique consist in two coats of colored Lime paste,
the second coat being incised to reveal the color of the first coat

We offer a large range of finish, from creamy, mat, to chalky or shiny to meet your design vision,
in almost any color you would wish.
Regarding colors, Paulin offers color consulting, to develop a coherent palette through a complete presentation with various samples.
The realization is done by a team of professional painters specially trained in those ancients techniques.

Japanese paper "Washi"

Paulin Paris — Sat, 17 Dec 2005 02:55:00 -0800

Washi is a traditional japanese paper made from the soft inner bark of plants.
Very different from Western paper, Washi is very light, translucent and soft, we use it pasted on the walls on top of a colored background.
The result is incredibly luminous and subtle

Sgrafitto

Paulin Paris — Sat, 17 Dec 2005 02:51:00 -0800

This ancient Italian technique consist of 2 coats of different colors of Lime paste
in the following pictures, the first coat is black, the second is white.
(but it could be any other colors)

The final drawing is carved out with sharp tools on top of the second coat, in order to reveal the color of the first coat

This detail shows the carved lines of the drawing

The final result, created for the gym room in a private residence

Marquetry inlay

Paulin Paris — Sat, 17 Dec 2005 02:50:00 -0800

Using a variety of "Faux Bois" wallpapers we create a large range of marquetry, for screens, furniture, decorative panels or even walls. Following an original drawing, each piece is cut and paste in order to achieve the effect of a wood inlay, the result is incredible.
