Designer wall finishes are for walls that should feel special: a pearlescent shimmer in a living room, marble veins in a dining area, raw concrete in an office, or real metal in a hotel lobby. These are the Luxture Italian and designer finishes, what they are made of and where to use them.

Where designer finishes work best
Homes
One feature wall in the living room, a dining wall, the bed-back wall or the entrance foyer. Keep the other walls simple so the finish stands out.
Hospitality and retail
Hotel lobbies, restaurant walls and showroom backdrops, where Metal Line, Magnum and Concretone hold attention.
Offices
Reception walls and conference rooms in Concretone or Iconic Walls for a calm, premium look.
Designer finishes are hand-applied, so the result depends on the applicator. If you need a professional to design the space, use Find an Architect in your City. For outdoor walls, see exterior texture paint.
Frequently asked questions
What is an Italian wall finish?
An Italian wall finish is a decorative plaster or coating, rooted in traditional Italian plasterwork, that gives walls depth, movement and a hand-crafted look. Examples are pearlescent finishes, marble effects, lime plasters and concrete-look plasters.
What is the difference between designer wall paint and normal paint?
Normal paint gives a flat, single-colour film. Designer finishes add depth: micro-crystals that catch the light in Magnum, marble veins in Dazzle, real metal in Metal Line, or mineral texture in Lime N Clay and Iconic Walls.
Which designer finish looks like marble?
Luxture Dazzle recreates the veining and depth of natural marble. You can set the vein intensity from 50 ML for a light marbling to 600 ML for a bold, heavily veined wall.
Is there a natural, chemical-free option?
Lime N Clay is a 100% natural heritage plaster made from hydraulic lime and clay, and Iconic Walls is a mineral coating of hydraulic lime, purified clay and microfibres.
Can designer finishes be used outdoors?
Some can. Concretone, Lime N Clay and Metal Line are suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Magnum, Dazzle and Iconic Walls are interior finishes.
