Casts From the Past III

Casts From the Past is a recurring retrospective of select Palladio GFRG projects.

Despite the use of plaster being many millennia old, even modern spaces benefit from its addition, as our fluted wall panels amply demonstrate in the Versace at Saks Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

Here’s a custom pattern in the middle of being assembled from several individual profiles.

In case you were wondering, yes, we DO spend an enormous amount of time making sure a pattern – or anything we craft in plaster – is as near perfect as possible. We start with quadruple-checking angles and proportions and continue all the way to filling tiny air bubbles and buffing out inadvertent fingerprints.

In our line of work, “breaking the mould” is usually frowned upon. Unless we’re breaking out of our classical-dominated interiors to create modern pieces  – like these 3D wall tiles for a chain of health clinics in the NY area.
