Microcement: Seamless Mineral Surface

A space continuously covered with mineral coating. The floor, walls, and built-in volumes all use the same microcement, applied by hand in layers, with a thickness of only a few millimeters, allowing it to extend along any curved surface without seams. The surface color is a warm beige-brown, but not uniformly flat—directional marks left by the trowel, subtle variations in shade between layers, and naturally accumulating darker tones at the corners are visible. The texture is matte, fine-grained, absorbing light rather than reflecting it. All corners are rounded. Because there are no seams or trim strips, the entire space feels enveloped by a single skin. Light creates subtle highlights and shadows on the undulating surface. Avoid: visible seams, dividing lines, and trim strips, making the surface uniformly smooth and flawless, using high-gloss sealers, using cool gray tones.

一個以礦物質塗料連續包覆的空間。地面、牆面與內建的量體全部使用同一種微水泥,以手工分層抹製,厚度僅數公釐,因此可以順著任何曲面延展而不需要接縫。表面的顏色是溫暖的米褐,但不是均勻的一片——可以看見抹刀留下的方向性痕跡、層與層之間的深淺變化、以及邊角處自然聚集的較深色調。質地是霧面的、細顆粒的,吸光而不反射。轉角全部是圓弧收邊。因為完全沒有接縫與收邊條,整個空間像被一層皮膚包住。光在起伏的表面上形成細微的明暗。避免:出現接縫、分割線與收邊條、把表面做成均勻無痕、使用高光的封層、使用冷灰色調。
