and...the toilets. Interesting for this kind of tadelakt on the walls.

I dont think it's real tedelakt or is it? Come to think of it, with Zumthor it probably is.

Interior shots were difficult because forbidden.

you know i laugh in the face of 'forbidden interior shots'

Ouch... I too. But we had the local gestapo around because we were more interested in these concrete doors than in the sculptures there...

Ouch. That 'Tadelakt' is beautiful!

I honestly had to look it up to make sure it was what I thought. For the rest that don't recognize the name, here is a description from the Tierrafino web site.

"Tadelakt is a water-proof, shiny lime-based plaster for interior and exterior use, supplied as a powder." Also listed as "Moroccan Lime".

The color range is also very nice [ see this link (http://www.tierrafino.com/en/tadelakt_colors.html) ].

Does anyone know if it's available in the US?

I know there are sets of ready-to-use tadelakt-like things. I never tried.

just a few pics, from my trip to Austria... It was sunday and we couldn't go in... :bang head

I one of my favourites, love the way the stairs are reflected... it took me ages to take a photo with just a few school mates around it...
