Cavalli Corp prides itself on its ability to create one-of-a-kind projects to ensure that every client has something different and special. Our job is to express the creative wishes of our clients in order to achieve intricate, unique designs to match every taste but never re-create the same look. Our colors come from a color chart of twelve of our most popular colors, but are custom formulated and can be created to match any color. The photos to the right were taken in a conference room where the walls were plastered in a two-tone Tuscan Yellow pigment. The ceiling, which you will see below, is a combination of blues and greys, where three-dimensional details were created to simulate a "diamond" ceiling. The columns on the walls, the custom floor trim, and the intricate ceiling details are all custom casting projects designed exclusively by Cavalli Corp., made with cultured stone in a combination of beautiful colors to compliment the walls and ceiling. We have used this type of trim and decor both in interior and exterior homes and businesses for windows, floor trim, ceiling decoration, and door trim, along with other various decorative uses (you will see many more of these projects). This room has a warm feeling, with rich color and and complimentary delicate details to create a calm and tranquil space.

| Upper left: The ceiling and upper column detail from the room above is shown here. Careful attention to detail was given especially to the diamond ceiling, where spatulas and painting knives were used to add special detail in the creases and inside the diamond shapes themselves. The two-tone plaster effect continues here, both on the outer edges of the details and inside the diamonds as well. The casting was also done by hand, using complimentary colors to accent the Tuscan Yellow walls in the room. Middle left: This was the first design that used the diamond effect and eventually became known as the "One Thousand Diamond Ceiling." This ceiling was created on a concave surface, with the outer edges of the diamons one color and the center another. Looking closely, one can see that the color is much darker and more concentrated in the center, while fading and lightening as it gets closer to the edge of the ceiling, creating a unique design unlike any other. Lower left: This is a prime example of why Infinito is called a "fresco" as opposed to a plaster. The painting here was done directly on plaster using oil paints, similar to the effect of Michaelangelo's artwork in the Sistine Chapel. The arch enclosing the painting is a custom piece that was casted specially for the piece.

Upper right: This fireplace is a one-of-a-kind casting project. It was designed to compliment the neutral tones in the space, while also adding a sense of warmth and comfort to a living room.
Middle right: One of our biggest projects, this fireplace stood over 8 feet tall. It was created to replicate genuine imported Italian stone fireplaces, and with its unmatched beauty and uncanny resemblance, the fireplace easily became the focus of the room. Its commanding presence was softened by the light colors, yet was still captivating solely for the unique shading and details, which are impossible to recreate.
Lower right: Here, Jake stands next to the fireplace to give a good frame of reference to how large this piece really is. Its as large as it is beautiful and is sure to add a special touch to the room.

| Upper left: In this winery, the effect of a "brick" edge was created using several different colors to obtain a distinction between every "brick", while using complimentary colors that blended well together. Each "brick" is done in a two tone finish.
Middle left: The ceiling in the winery was also done in a two tone finish, with four one-of-a-kind flower motifs to add some special detail to the room. The motifs are all raised about 1/16 of an inch above the ceiling, drawing attention to the already beautiful ceiling.
Lower left: A better view of the detailing, this is an up close view of the flower motifs on the ceiling in this winery.

Upper right: The walls and ceiling in this condo were all done in plaster, but the eye-catcher here is the detailing on the ceiling. The shield, which was done entirely in plaster on a concave surface, is a replica of a 17th century European family crest. Here one can also notice the dark hues that are achievable with Infinito, which are impossible with other plasters on the market today.
Middle right: An up close shot of the family shield, one can easily see how much detail and time that went into this crest. Without Infinito’s ability to stay flexible and workable for at least four hours, it would have been impossible to give this project the attention and time it deserved without worrying about the material drying in the bucket.
Lower right: Another example of Infinito’s versatility, this European scroll was also done on a concave ceiling while paying close attention to details such as shading to give the effect of a “woven” scroll.

| Upper left: Our crew is known for their work on intricate ceilings, and this is another prime example. This ceiling is, like many others, done on a concave surface in four sections that meet together in the middle. On two of the four sections are custom floral detailing, which adds a personal touch to the decorative ceiling.
Middle left: This recessed ceiling was done in a different set of colors for each level. This created a sense of drama and accented the ceiling, drawing attention to the different depths in the ceiling.
Lower left: Another example of our ceiling work, this room is simple yet beautiful with its neutral walls and rich ceiling tones.

Upper right: This arch is an original piece that creates the perfect contrast between the wall color and the stone. It allows one to truly appreciate the depth of the darker hues when compared to their lighter counterparts.
Middle right: An up close photo, one can see the detail and aged appearance of the arch that frames the entryway.
Lower right: The detailing, including the trim around the doors and floor are all more examples of the casting that our company does. It reflects the taste of the Old World architecture and compliments the richness of vibrant colors, such as the red tones on the walls in this photo, flawlessly. It is the perfect combination for a one-of-a-kind look that can’t be found anywhere else.
