A shikkui that can be applied directly to the original surface

Having an interest in modern architecture, Mr. S. had settled on the use of shikkui to renovate the room. Researching the subject, he found a plaster that could be applied directly to the surfaces in the room – gypsum boards and painted walls. This plaster was Umaku Nureru . And even better, it was easily available from a local home center, making it even more convenient.

Umaku Nureru improved the ceiling too.

With the help of his wife, Mr. S. applied shikkui for the first time in his life. He told us that he was able to plaster the surfaces more cleanly than he expected, although he found it difficult to achieve a flat finish like a professional plasterer. He also used Umaku Nureru for the ceiling. The unique shading created by the combination of shikkui and downlights has created a pleasant feeling! Mr. S. found that his manual dexterity as a professional joiner allowed him to achieve a rounded finish on the corners of the room.
