Wall texture and paint

Once the wall board was installed texturing of the walls quickly followed. We went with a heavy texture so there are noticeable strokes on the wall. The idea is to look reminiscent of hand plastering. Right now, without paint, the walls have a varigated color pattern. That will become more subtle when painted, but will have lighter and darker areas as the heavy trowelling adds subtle shadowing.

I've picked the tan color, Desert Fawn, which will be used throughout the house. I'm considering using a sage green called Mosele for the upper master and possibly the lower master. The painters are starting to prep this week and will mix some lighter versions of Mosele for me to look at. I like the tint of the color and it goes well with Desert Fawn, it just needs to be lighter.
