Earthborn used for tiny passive house
A new 2 bedroom eco house in
London occupies just 83sq m but
makes the most of every inch of
that space by using six half-storey
floors linked by open stairs.
Most of the house was painted
with white Ecopro Matt Emulsion
to maximise light transmission
through the building. The light
grey Tuffet shade of Claypaint
provides a calm ambience in the
two bedrooms.
Claypaint is a unique, clay based emulsion - a high performance,
highly breathable paint that covers exceptionally well and gives a
distinctive, ultra matt finish. Ecopro Matt Emulsion is especially
useful for new plaster, having excellent covering properties.
The lack of oils and acrylics means Earthborn paints do not give
off harmful emissions, and are much better for the health of
building occupants as well as the environment.
Claypaint is available in Earthborn’s signature palette of 72
shades, while Ecopro is available in all 100 colours of BS4800.
They are both approved to the stringent EU Ecolabel standard.
