Iris Limewash Paint | Blue Collection

Elevate your interiors with the ethereal, atmospheric charm of Iris.

Iris is a beautiful, misty mauve-blue that captures the fleeting colors of a twilight sky. This nuanced shade strikes a perfect balance between a soft blue and a delicate violet, offering a serene and sophisticated feel that works wonderfully in bedrooms, living areas, or any space intended for relaxation. Its “misty” quality ensures that the colour remains soft and liveable, providing a touch of floral-inspired elegance without being overwhelming.

As a Bauwerk Colour Limewash, Iris is a mineral-based finish that creates a living, breathable surface. Unlike standard synthetic paints, it results in a matte, suede-like texture with subtle tonal variations that give your walls a sense of movement and depth.

The Colour Profile

Iris acts as a soft, cool-toned neutral with a colorful soul, making it a versatile choice for modern or classic aesthetics.

The Tone: A misty, muted blue with a soft mauve undertone. The Mood: Ethereal, calming, and sophisticated. The Comparison: If you are looking to create a mood with more depth and saturation, we suggest exploring Lake, Hortensia, or the deeper, more floral-toned Foxglove.

Why Choose Bauwerk Limewash?

Our paints are crafted with a commitment to both aesthetic beauty and environmental health. When you choose Iris, you are selecting a product that is:

Environmentally Friendly: Made from natural lime and sustainable mineral pigments. Breathable: Supports a healthy building environment by allowing moisture to move freely through the surface. Naturally Antibacterial: The high pH of the lime provides a natural resistance to mold and mildew. Unique Finish: Applied in thin, overlapping layers, it creates a handcrafted “cloud” effect that adds movement and soul to your walls.

Application & Coverage

For the best results, we recommend applying Iris with a Bauwerk Limewash Brush. Using a loose, multi-directional “cloud” technique allows the misty mauve-blue pigments to layer and bloom, highlighting the natural shifts in the paint.

Tip: Limewash is designed for absorbent surfaces like render, brick, or surfaces prepared with a specialized lime-prep undercoat. We always recommend a patch test to see how Iris interacts with your specific interior lighting, as the mauve undertones can shift throughout the day.

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.
