Dear friends and colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we can now announce that our new book: ‘Using Natural Finishes: Lime and earth based plasters, renders and paints, a step-by-step guide’, published by Green Books, has now officially been released. It is available in most bookstores and on-line. We apologise for the delay in its release, but we hope that it will be worth the wait!

We are also excited to inform you of our new website, www.naturalbuildingresources.com, which is the online resources and suppliers database accompanying the book. It provides a comprehensive list of suppliers, courses, organizations, journals and practitioners for all things related to lime and clay plasters, renders, paints and washes. We decided to create an online database because we feel that this kind of information changes so rapidly and we wanted to be able to capture these changes. The website will allow us to be able to do this. Please contact us if you have any additions to make to our list.

We hope you enjoy the book.

Warm Regards,

Adam Weismann and Katy Bryce
