As always, we viewers get to learn something new from you. And we also get to realize how much patience you’ve had while creating your home one step at a time.

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@francescopaololaghezza7665]

Sapete, io architetto quasi settantenne, mi rammarico del dissiparsi delle mie energie e gioisco per il trionfo delle vostre che tanto bene alimentano il vostro gran lavoro. Dalla mia casa in campagna, mediante la vostra condivisione, apprendo nuove tecnologie e l'impiego di materiali desueti ed affascinanti, la vostra passione e la vostra pervicacia. Mi piace pensare di liberarmi dei miei acciacchi e completare le tante opere che ancora non ho potuto completare nella mia casa. Vi auguro ogni bene.

[@lindacarruthers3423]

I absolutely understand your feelings and the strong wishes precipitated by them.My own place in life appears to be the same as yours. Old age and the infirmities that accompany it are unfortunately a natural part of the aging process . I too am heartened by this remarkable couple as they continue to grip this ailing remainder of a building and all the history it contains and strongly haul it into the present. At this time we seem to be living with a lot of doom ,disaster and despair being fed to us .This young couple with their commitment to what is right and excellent do much to lift my spirits .❤

[@ateliermavi]

Grazie mille! 🤗

[@sorensenDKuki]

I was expecting tiles, but after seeing that you were doing Venetian plaster (Pastellone) on the walls and floor, I am a big fan. No grout lines, one continuous surface throughout and super durable. Also a very elegant look for a bathroom, very similar to terrazzo flooring. I can't wait to see the finished product! As always, excellent work all!

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you very much 🧡

[@annafink6217]

I'm no expert in house building or renovation of very old houses such as yours. but in my opinion, the results are most beautiful and i love how you use old material or old techniques. I look forward to the progress, thank you for sharing!

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you 🤗

[@davidbiddle3257]

I appreciate hearing the Italian spoken, such a beautifully sonorous language!

[@kdclothes]

I am intrigued by the process of the waterproof pastellone. This is worth looking into for my renovation. I appreciate all of your hard work and knowledge. Thank you for including us in your journey. Bravo.

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you for watching 🩵

[@RCY_DE]

Always a beautiful symphony - I very much appreciate how you do and capture your work. The anticipation for the finished project is overwhelming.

[@kennstransky]

Good Morning from Vermont USA Snow is melting here this morning as I sit and drink coffee watching another update video from you. Great progress, yet I most enjoyed seeing your walk in the woods and your dog playing in the water. Winter is over!

[@antonellapesenti8283]

Avete buon gusto, conoscenze tecniche, manualità e dalle vostre scelte nell'acquistare i materiali si capisce che amate questo pianeta. Ci vorrebbero più architetti come voi!

[@ateliermavi]

Grazie di cuore per le belle parole ❤️

[@jimmorel1980]

Toujours aussi agréable de vous regardez chaque semaine. Merci de nous faire partager les techniques d’ autrefois

[@ateliermavi]

Merci ☺️

[@cttravels5244]

Incredible progress. Excellent work. Fascinating content. Beautiful people. (And puppy). Gracci.

[@patriciathorp4911]

Excellent plasterers, both of you and attention to detail is admirable too.

[@guerro327]

Great work guys! You made that surface so smooth. You always seem to take the delays in stride and keep moving forward. Such determination and skill. ❤❤

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you ☺️

[@joesangalli882]

It is very satisfying watching you both put in so much work and dedication in building your home. These moments will last a lifetime for you.

[@ateliermavi]

🩵thank you

[@waltervonoer9190]

I love these videos, working with own hands, the thought you put into the project and also the progress we can see. I also watch the videos of "Martijn Doolard" here on KZbin. A slightly 'different' approach, a different philosophy, but both supported by a lot of creativity. We city dwellers in Germany, oh what poor souls we are 😂. All the best, keep up the good work.👍

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you! Different environments and climates too 😉

[@jeanhawken4482]

The products you have used for the building have been so exciting. Opening my eyes to what can be and should be. Many thanks

[@ateliermavi]

Thanks!!

[@blackjackjoe7]

Always enjoy watching your progress and I can't wait to see the final outcome. Best wishes!

[@secret_one]

I love the way you two work together, it seems you are attuned to each other. They way you give everyting, that you can, a go is quite amazing and inspires me to attempt more at home. Keep up the great work. ANy thoughts on doing bloopers video ?

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you! we haven't thought of bloopers video, there isn't many on video😉

[@diyhard666]

I'm excited to see the end result, but I would have used natural stone from the area for the floor. especially to have a contrast with the walls. Also I always do silicone in the edges between floor and walls to prevent water from penetrating potential cracks. Like you did between the different floors.

[@pauloavila4434]

Felicitaciones, de Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil! É muito legal aprender técnicas de construção e acabamentos totalmente fora dos padrões da atualidade. A casa de você está ficando linda. Parabéns!

[@ateliermavi]

Obrigad*!

[@JohnnyConcrete67]

Great job !!! A big hug to 🐕‍🦺 ❤

[@giuseppinazanni3821]

Buona sera e buon Domenica

[@StefanWollweber]

as always a great episode, it is nice to see how your dream house is growing and how much love and energy you are investing and you are doing everything wonderfully. continued success and love, greetings from germany

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you very much for your kind words! 🤍

[@christeljeandheur8090]

Super rendu, bravo et bonne continuation ❤

[@ateliermavi]

Merci!!

[@mikegrabarek7312]

Your views from your home to the town look fascinating. Some time when you travel to the town, it would be interesting to see what the drive and the town are like. Pretty please.

[@ateliermavi]

We will be doing a tour of the village soon as we had many request :) and the drive up to the house is pretty bumpy 😅

[@laurencemarchal8530]

Hello les courageux 😊 Merci pour les jolis paysages 🤩 et pour les explications détaillées sur la pastellone. Très intéressant ! Je trouve ça génial d'avoir dans une salle d'eau un revêtement murs et sol entièrement sans joints. La difficulté est qu'il faut obtenir un résultat parfaitement lisse. Mais vous savez y faire, vous avez la technique et la patience 👍Le résultat semble déjà super, même sans couches de finition. Encore de l'excellent travail, bravo à vous. Câlins à la plus belle ! A la semaine prochaine 😉

[@ateliermavi]

Merci beaucoup!! 🌸❤️

[@EA-dd6go]

It's starting to look like home!

[@ateliermavi]

It is❤️

[@marielenejarno423]

Superbe travail d'équipe et vos bras et vos genoux doivent être douloureux. Toujours de beaux produits utilisés, je suis sûre que le rendu sera magnifique. Votre maison est vraiment unique. Bravo et à bientôt.👍👏👏😀🏡

[@ateliermavi]

Avec les genouillères, pas de soucis 😉

[@cathybrewer8958]

Another big job half way done. Now for the drying time. The weather seems to be ugly almost everywhere. The walls looks almost like a leather coating. Great job.

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you!! 💙

[@Nena84734]

I love how the finish is one continuous texture everywhere!

[@ateliermavi]

We love as well ❤️‍🔥

[@davidtederick]

Wow!!! What a transformation! You all are doing great! Thank you for sharing

[@ateliermavi]

[@ateliermavi]

Thanks to you for watching it!!

[@donnaryan9365]

Became a new subscriber tonight ! Just happened to click on your channel and see what you’re both creating! My oh my! What a project. You do beautiful work, not sure if you’re a tradesman or not??? But you certainly approach things that way. Creating a beautiful home💗

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you and welcome! We are not tradesman/woman but architects 😉

[@mahalia5594]

I wish I could give a thumbs up 👍🏾 more than once, excellent work ❤

[@ateliermavi]

Thanks 🤩❤️

[@martinmoore9758]

The pastellone has me intrigued, very interested to see how it turns out. ❤

[@flosignoretto3265]

Bel lavoro!! Je decouvre cette technique di Venezia. Conosco soppratutto il terrazzo! Siete bravissimi

[@ateliermavi]

Grazie mille! ☺️

[@johnoleary528]

You both have such patience with these monotonous tasks. The results are fabulous though 😊

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you very much 💖

[@fwhelan794]

[@wbklausmeyer]

So many layers. So beautiful.

[@ateliermavi]

[@mezanian]

I hesitate to make comparisons, but your channel, LEAW and Martijn Doolard bringing Italian ruins back to life I'm constantly inspired😊 Ciao from Australia 🇦🇺

[@ateliermavi]

We’re happy to be an inspiration 🫶🏼 thank you!

[@phantomframe]

I love how there’s tile in every room of your house…except the bathroom! It’s beautiful, it’s brilliant and as always, I can’t wait to see what it will look like when it’s all finished. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@jean-louisboullu5991]

Explication très claire. Courage, le soleil va revenir et le taux d'humidité finir par baisser 😀

[@beverlymartin1414]

Good Morning from the Treasure Coast of Florida, Sunny here glad to see you two plus pup❤❤❤

[@suzanneperron549]

Sooo interesting! I just love this decision to do this! But after watching all this time it’s really no surprise that you will choose to do something amazing, hard meticulous labor be damned! You are absolutely smashing it!

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you 💙💙

[@janel4582]

I was paying close attention to how you would do the inner corners and I see a SPOON! Genius idea, I'm stealing that. I love how you show the whole process, the different stages. This gives a good idea of what to expect. Too often in videos, we only get a glimpse of the finished stages. It's nice to see in detail all the hard work involved in creating something beautiful and durable. I can hardly wait to see the next art. And, er, was that a peek of actual kitchen cabinets I saw😉Thank you for sharing.

[@ateliermavi]

😁 We used a plastic spoon, but a metal spoon should work even better! and yes we made a start on the kitchen cabinets ;)

[@martinpc5140]

Looking great. Plastering skills ✔️

[@VMc828]

❤beautiful. Looking forward to the final result. Thank you for sharing🙏🙂

[@oscarpablo6612]

[@tonifreeman-pt1rb]

You make it look so easy but I know it’s a lot of hard work. It’s looking fabulous!!

[@ateliermavi]

It is! Thank you 🩷

[@federicoperi4102]

Bel lavoro, anche se immagino il mal di schiena e le ginocchia doloranti a fine giornata!

[@ateliermavi]

Eh un pochino si!! Però siamo ben equipaggiati con ginocchiere ✨

[@NancysBungalowLife]

Thank you so much for sharing this technique! It is going to be fabulous when done!

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you ☺️

[@Skattie]

Absolutely fascinated with floor technique , amazing

[@hansejr]

That Banca della Calce product is fantastic. We did venetian plaster walls in our home here in the United States but used tile in the shower area. I did not realize there was a waterproof plaster. Thanks for voicing Maddi!

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you 💚

[@IvanNovotný-x4x]

Perfect and inspiring work, as always on your project. Ivan

[@manuelafigueiredo7309]

At a certain point in the video it looked like the floor was a cake and you were putting the icing on it... the texture was so soft!

[@ateliermavi]

🤣🧁🍰🎂🥳🌸

[@brianwalker8952]

Good evening from Umvoti, South Africa. What satisfaction you must have achieved with the plastering and trowling of the floor in your bathroom. Master/Mistress perfection. Beautiful.

[@jenaemarieAZ]

Gorgeous finish!

Hi to you both from Ireland, i found your channel only a couple of days ago, and i have binge watched all , i can't wait for more. How amazing you both are, im loving what you have done to a beautiful old home, it has come back to life, you both have some work ethic,im amazed at all you have done so sympathetic, the use of eco products, im just amazed, its a credit to you both. I find it so relaxing watching you (im not doing the hard work). May your home and life be filled with lov, health, and happiness ❤

[@ateliermavi]

You’re so kind! Thank you very much for watching the videos and for your support 🤍

En Allemagne, pour décrire le procès d'apprendre, nous disons: la première maison qu'on construit est pour un ennemi, la seconde pour un ami, la troisième est pour soi-même. Il me semble que vous n'avez pas besoin de faire ce détour. Votre plan est raffiné, les matériaux sont merveilleux et vous travaillez soigneusement. C'est votre maison que vous aimerez. 🥰

[@ateliermavi]

💖Merci beaucoup 💖

[@guentherkoffler9408]

Watching your videos from Pulau Pinang in Malaysia, it is always a pleasure to see something being built with so much care and passion in the very contrast to all the news about distruction in Europe and the middle east. I am again and again surprised on your selection of traditional materials. Ceramic tiles may have been much easier than terra cotta tiles or your watefproof plaster. I wonder whether you had that in mind from the beginning or decided along the way. However, the result is amazing! I sense that you are sharing your dream, please dont fall into the trap of doing it for more subsribers, you will reach 100 000 without any changes. I keep watching and wish you all the best.

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you so much! 🤗 Some materials we knew we were going to use since the beginning, others we chose along the way!

[@jwthrussell8786]

Oh yes looks amazing!! Great job…..worth it. 😮🎉

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you🌸🌸

[@mariaetheridge8343]

Wow! So smooth! We are all looking forward to the day when it's all finished! You are doing a fantastic job!!!

It definitely looks a little chilly there now, but yet I see the daffodils coming up. This first coat looks a little more " buttery" than the rough coats before it. Was it easier to apply? I am loving this rustic effect your bathroom is going to have. Your skill level has skyrocketed. You two work so hard.❤

[@ateliermavi]

Each new layer is easier than the one before, as the support is always smoother ☺️

[@KeePenne]

Awwww...the end of this segment came quickly! Looking forward to the end result. 😊

Already looking good. Also, I’m learning Italian, so having Maddi narrate an episode was quite good (though I don’t really understand the technical language)

[@ateliermavi]

Grazie ☺️ Have you try turning the italian subtitles on as well to help you understand?
