We smoothed out some walls today. The whole exterior wall on the second floor was made out of special blocks that carry their own insulation.

It’s a pretty cool idea. The locks are made out of wood chips. They serve as support and insulation – all in one.

We smoothed them out with plaster and this way saved the homeowner quite a bit of money and time. With the traditional dry wall, they would have to frame the wall, install dry wall, texture and paint. Plaster creates its own finish and can be tinted, so no paint is ever needed.
