While upholstered walls are an on-trend way to add a soft and luxurious, tactile dimension, they often come with drawbacks: high maintenance, vulnerability to wear and tear, and limitations in wet or high-traffic areas.
Vieroplast offers a remarkably durable alternative. It's not just another decorative plaster; it's a testament to creative freedom and functional elegance. This highly versatile acrylic decorative plaster is designed for creating rich, textured finishes with a truly handcrafted feel. While it allows for a wide variety of personalised effects – from subtle trowelled textures to dramatic stone-like surfaces – it particularly excels in crafting a unique ribbed or corduroy aesthetic that offers all the visual appeal of fabric without any of the typical maintenance headaches.
The Corduroy Aesthetic, Reimagined for Walls
Imagine the inviting, tactile appeal of corduroy fabric, now translated onto your walls. Vieroplast allows for the precise application of a ribbed pattern that mimics this classic texture, bringing a sense of comfort and understated luxury to any space. This effect is achieved through specific application techniques, leveraging Vieroplast’s flexible, easy-to-mould formulation that responds effortlessly to different tools. The result is a consistent, directional texture that catches the light beautifully, adding dynamic shadows and highlights to your walls.
Why Vieroplast Outperforms Traditional Upholstery
Choosing Vieroplast for a corduroy-style wall finish offers numerous advantages over traditional upholstered walls. Unlike fabric, which can fray, stain easily, or suffer from indentation over time, Vieroplast cures to a robust, hard-wearing surface. It offers strong surface performance suitable for a variety of interior environments, including high-traffic areas in residential, retail, hospitality, and commercial settings. It resists scratches, impact, and general wear far more effectively than fabric.
Where upholstered walls are notorious for attracting dust, pet hair, and odours, and are challenging to clean when stained, Vieroplast is significantly easier to maintain. Being a plaster-based finish, it can be wiped clean, making it a hygienic choice that retains its fresh appearance with minimal effort. It’s extremely versatile and can be easily manipulated to achieve not just ribbed corduroy effects but also dragged, trowelled, or stippled finishes. It is also available in 39 colours, offering the same variety you would expect from a traditionally upholstered wall.
Additional Options
Beyond fabric-inspired textures like corduroy, Vieroplast can create finishes inspired by stone, wood, and cement. This means you can achieve a cohesive, natural aesthetic throughout your property, blending different textures seamlessly. For those seeking even greater depth and complexity, Vieroplast can be used independently or paired with other Viero decorative products for added dimension and unique surface effects. This allows for truly bespoke wall designs that tell a story.
