Stucco--the color is a cobalt blue powdered pigment that is mixed into the final coat of stucco. Is it added to a standard grey cement stucco mix. The concept for the color comes from the dark blue-grey skies with dark patches and bright blue layered in that happen almost daily in the summer in the area when a storm is rolling in . . . |
Embedded into the aerated concrete block in certain areas are travertine shelves for convenience, picture frames, keys, drinks, etc. |
