Fully bonded and insured company
Hand-Applied Plaster Finishes, Built to Last a Lifetime
Trowel Designs brings authentic Venetian plaster, micro cement, tadelakt, and marmorino finishes to homes and businesses across Los Angeles — from Westlake Village and Agoura Hills to Malibu, Calabasas, and Thousand Oaks. Led by Avital "Avi" Zilber, who brings over 25 years of hands-on plaster application experience, our team works directly with homeowners, interior designers, and builders to turn ordinary walls into one-of-a-kind, textured surfaces that catch the light differently every hour of the day.
Every project starts with a conversation about your space, your lighting, and your vision — then a hand-applied sample so you can see and feel the finish before we begin. Fully licensed, bonded, and insured.
“Living With Lime-plastered Walls is Like Living Inside a Rothko Painting”
“Fluting, the latest new look to character and texture home”
Our Specialties
Venetian Plaster → Smooth, polished, and luminous — the original Italian wall finish, hand-troweled in multiple thin layers for depth you can't get from paint.
Micro Cement → Seamless, modern, and waterproof-ready — ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and floors where a clean, joint-free surface is the goal.
Tadelakt → A traditional Moroccan lime plaster, polished and sealed for wet environments — the finish of choice for walk-in showers and spa-style bathrooms.
Marmorino → A marble-dust plaster with a soft, stone-like texture, offering old-world Italian character for walls and ceilings alike.
Decorative Plaster & Fluting → From Art Deco fluted columns to rustic, textured walls — custom decorative finishes that add architectural character to any room.

Customer Reviews
"I was the interior designer on a 6200 square foot remodel in Los Angeles. Trowel Designs plastered the living room, kitchen, hallways and powder room. It turned out absolutely beautiful. Avi is a consummate professional. He clearly communicated the process and executed a perfect job with fine artistry and grace. I can't wait to hire him for my next project."
