c r e a t i v e design – products and design techniques 5 CONQUERING LIGHTNESS: TRANSPARENT ELEGANCE WITH GLAZE TECHNIQUE PURE FACINATION Wall designs in glaze technique fascinate by their truly lively character: Whether decently glowing or powerfully vibrating, whether on the facade or indoors, whether of subtle simplicity or spectacular finesse – the directness of their effects captures the eye. LIVING WALLS The opportunities for the creative designer are almost endless. Everything is possible, working tone in tone or multi-coloured or in combination with countless design techniques, such as dabbing with a sponge, rolling a rag or speckling. The transparency of the glaze can also be diversely modified. No matter which one of the manifold techniques is used: the matte, noble character of a skilfully applied mineral glaze is always a good choice to add life to a wall almost giving the appearance of an artwork. UNLIMITED DIVERSITY As diverse as the number of available techniques, so too are the application fields of mineral glazes. Glazes are used for high-quality restoration of monuments and, also inside and outside of buildings with a modern architectural ambience. This gives facades and interior walls a special visual accentuation. Glazes are also perfectly suited for the “refining” of different substrates. The otherwise plain looking concrete can become astonishingly alive through a treatment with glaze. The structure of the building material – with possibly still visible texture of the wooden framework – creates surprising effects.
