Hay Limewash Paint | Warm Yellow Collection

Capture the essence of a sun-drenched meadow with Hay, a colour that brings the warmth of the countryside indoors.

True to its name, Hay reflects the soft, golden hues of freshly cut fields. Part of our range of warm, pale yellow limewash paints, it is a perfect choice for creating an interior that feels inviting, cozy, and filled with natural light. This shade provides a gentle glow that warms up a room without being overpowering, offering an organic alternative to traditional off-whites.

As a Bauwerk Colour Limewash, Hay is a mineral-based finish that breathes with your walls. It creates a matte, suede-like texture that reacts beautifully to the light, ensuring your space feels lived-in and timeless rather than flat and static.

The Colour Profile

Hay sits at the heart of our sun-baked palette, acting as a soft neutral that pairs beautifully with natural timber and stone.

The Tone: A warm, pale yellow with the soft, organic depth of dried grass.

The Mood: Welcoming, rustic, and sun-warmed.

The Comparison: If you prefer a slightly crisper feel, Fields offers a cooler version of this tone. For those seeking something more subtle and airy, Rice is a beautiful lighter alternative.

Why Choose Bauwerk Limewash?

Our paints are crafted with a commitment to both aesthetic beauty and environmental health. When you choose Hay, 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 Hay with a Bauwerk Limewash Brush. Using a loose, multi-directional application technique allows the pale yellow pigments to bloom, highlighting the natural variations 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 Hay interacts with your specific interior lighting and architectural details.

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.
