What is Roman Painting on walls and can it be interior and exterior

Roman painting on walls usually refers to the decorative wall art and techniques used in Ancient Rome, especially in homes and villas. These paintings were often done in fresco (pigments applied onto wet plaster) and included scenes of nature, architecture, mythology, and intricate patterns.

538676838_18523483828049477_6410030192616100346_n.jpg

For this project, PIANO ROOM COLOR was applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

For this project, NOSTALGIA was applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

Relax and breathe easy in this Roman Clay Finish Piano Room, designed with a serene and effortless tranquility. It’s the perfect setting to pair with a cozy oversized chair, ideal for enjoying your favorite book.

This bathroom design brings a velvety depth to the walls, creating a rich and timeless backdrop with effortless elegance, wrapped in a deep green that balances elegance with a touch of charm. Sleek marble accents add refinement, while playful details lend a lighthearted feel.

543660090_18525102691049477_1316125922123850623_n.jpg

For this project, WASHI COLOR was applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

Where driftwood charm meets industrial edge, this light, earthy tone envelops the space with a gentle, shadow-like warmth. The soft, muted tone walls are paired with the velvety texture creates a serene depth, offering an elegant backdrop that feels both modern and timeless.

What are the Benefits of Roman Painting

Timeless Elegance – Creates a classic, high-end look inspired by Roman villas and palaces.

Customization – Can be tailored with colors, motifs, and designs to fit the style of the space.

Durability – Fresco techniques bond pigments deeply into the wall surface, making them resistant to fading.

Value Addition – Enhances the prestige and perceived value of a home or business.

Uniqueness – Provides an artistic, one-of-a-kind finish unlike standard paint jobs.

For this project, JACKET COLOR was applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

524855338_18518700697049477_5839090978606999653_n.jpg

For this project, PATAGONIA COLOR was applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

If moody sophistication took shape as a bathroom, it would look like this—deep black with a whiskey warmth. Every detail feels dark, rich, and boldly dramatic. Soft, glowing pendant lights complete the scene, casting an intimate ambiance that feels both bold and inviting.

Bold can be subtle. This space strikes balance through contrast, with off-white Roman Clay adding depth and texture—making a statement with effortless ease. This living space embodies refined tranquility, with soft neutral walls providing a serene backdrop for thoughtfully curated furnishings.

527237336_18519228649049477_7265758293071139736_n.jpg

For this project, COLORS ZION, ANTIGUA, HIGHLAND were applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

This kitchen strikes a perfect balance of earthy charm and refined elegance. The mossy olive walls, finished with a soft, textured sheen, create a grounding backdrop for the space. The overall design feels both warm and elevated—a space where rustic character meets understated opulence.

Drenched in Portola from every angle. Soft, creamy whites set the stage, while bold hits of terracotta and green break the stillness—like an exhale… with a little wink.

Why do people have Roman Painting done for their Home and Business Establishment

Homes: To bring warmth, sophistication, and artistry to living spaces, transforming walls into works of art.

Businesses: To create a memorable atmosphere, elevate brand image, and impress clients (especially in restaurants, hotels, spas, offices, or retail spaces).

Cultural or Thematic Appeal: Perfect for Mediterranean, classical, or luxury-inspired designs.

515585850_18514836364049477_4563584712778437755_n.jpg

For this project, COLORS NOSTALGIA and ZION were applied using the Roman Clay Finish.

The gentle flutter of Mariposa. A warm, creamy off-white perfect for your interior design with the perfect hint of softness, wrapped around this home in Roman Clay. This dreamy shade was born from a custom mix of two of my favorite colors—making it all the more special. Inspiration at its finest, indeed.

This color has this subtle power—it can completely shift the mood of a space. The rich olive green with a warm terracotta definitely balances each other beautifully. While these shades found in homes, they carry the same depth and calm into restaurants and gathering places—spaces meant to be experienced.

For this project, ROMAN CLAY COLORS MESA, ANTIGUA, SIRENE and HIGHLAND were applied.

This bathroom is pure interior design inspiration—a retreat in itself. Think classic marble paired with statement lighting, warm wood accents, and Roman Clay in a soft ivory off-white. The mix of cream, brown, and gold tones creates that timeless bathroom inspiration we all dream about.

One home, four Roman Clay hues—each one shaping its own mood and narrative. From a welcoming dining space to a bright, airy kitchen and a sophisticated bedroom retreat, this project is all about thoughtful interior design and refined color curation.

Why use a Professional Painting Company for Roman Painting instead of DIY

Skill & Technique – Roman painting requires specialized knowledge of layering, blending, and plaster application.

Materials Expertise – Professionals use authentic plasters, pigments, and sealers for durability and richness.

Flawless Finish – DIY attempts often result in uneven textures or fading over time.

Time & Efficiency – Professionals complete the work faster and with less mess.

Long-Term Value – A professionally executed Roman finish lasts longer, maintaining beauty and property value.

For this project, STONE 1 and STONE 4 COLOR were applied using the Traditional Finish.

502574595_18511366858049477_2768162724102546091_n.jpg

For this project, SUNBLEACHED COLOR were applied using the Acrylic (Ultra Flat) Finish.

A residential kitchen featuring the Roman Clay Finish from The Stone Series. If you’re aiming for a clean, modern aesthetic, this neutral palette is an excellent choice. With shades ranging from warm to cool, the collection offers a full spectrum of possibilities.

Take this dreamy bedroom, for example, painted in our shade Sun Bleached. The walls feel as though they’ve been softened by time—like a sun-kissed, weathered finish. In the morning light, the green shifts into the softest whisper, creating a space that feels both grounded and ethereal.
