Tranquil Limewash Paint | Neutral Colour Card Set

Create a serene and seamless environment with the understated elegance of Tranquil.

Tranquil is a pale, cool-based neutral limewash designed to bring a sense of absolute stillness to your interior. Expertly crafted from a blend of natural black, ochre, and clay pigments, it offers a clean, sophisticated palette that avoids any heavy yellow undertones. This specific colour is known for its exceptionally smooth appearance; it typically presents with very low to no visible texture, depending on the surface preparation and the angle of light, making it the perfect choice for those who desire the benefits of lime paint with a more uniform, contemporary finish.

As a Bauwerk Colour Limewash, Tranquil is a mineral-based finish that becomes part of your wall. It creates a breathable, matte surface that feels soft to the touch, providing an airy and expansive mood to any room.

The Colour Profile

Tranquil is the ideal foundation for a minimalist or architectural space where light and form are the primary focus.

The Tone: A pale, cool-toned neutral with a clean mineral base. The Mood: Calming, crisp, and expansive. The Comparison: If you love this cool neutral DNA but require a slightly deeper presence, Still is a beautiful darker version. For those seeking even more weight and definition, Balance offers a darker version again.

Why Choose Bauwerk Limewash?

Our paints are crafted with a commitment to both environmental health and aesthetic purity. Choosing Tranquil means selecting a product that is:

Environmentally Friendly: Produced using natural lime and earth-mined mineral pigments like clay and ochre.
Breathable: Supports a healthy indoor climate by allowing moisture to move freely through the surface.
Naturally Antibacterial: The high pH of natural lime provides a built-in defense against mold and mildew.
Refined Finish: Unlike more mottled shades, Tranquil offers a smoother, more consistent appearance while retaining the signature matte quality of lime.

Application & Coverage

To maintain the low-texture look of Tranquil, we recommend applying it with a Bauwerk Limewash Brush. While a “cloud” technique is standard, applying this specific colour in thinner, more even coats will help achieve the smooth, serene finish it is named for.

Tip: Limewash is intended for absorbent surfaces like brick, render, or surfaces prepared with a lime-compatible undercoat. Because Tranquil is a pale, cool-based hue, we always recommend a patch test to see how the light in your specific space interacts with its subtle pigments.

Benefits

The benefits of a paint made exclusively from minerals + natural pigments

BAUWERK Colour Lime Wash Paints are purely mineral based. They are manufactured from calcium carbonate, the same material sea shells are made from. When you paint with it the only chemical reaction that takes place is the absorption of atmospheric CO2 to convert the lime paint back to lime stone.

We colour our Limewash with natural pigments, this makes our colours completely different, as when light hits the wall the colours look like no other.

You can safely paint your home without any fear of breathing in fumes that are harmful to you or your children. We make the paint without solvents or volatile organic compounds (VOC). Because of that, Bauwerk Lime Paint is fire proof.

The paint can be used inside or outside, even in high humidity environments, such as bathrooms. It is not film-forming, like a plastic paint; it allows walls to breathe and be part of your micro-climate inside your home.

We don't use biocides or other preservatives; our lime wash has natural anti-bacterial properties. Enjoy the emotional depth and the play of light on our colours—they react dynamically to changing light conditions.
