Tamped Earth

A dense finish defined by a compacted and lightly irregular surface.

Tamped Earth is characterised by a compressed surface formed through repeated working of the material. The finish presents a firm, continuous plane with subtle variation in texture and tone, resulting from the compaction process.

The surface remains largely uniform, with variation expressed through slight inconsistencies rather than pattern or relief.
