Let me introduce myself
My name is Kevin Connetta, I own and operate Molto Bene Designer Wall Finishes. (Molto Bene = "Very Good" in Italian.) Molto Bene has been creating beautiful exclusive wall finishes in beautiful exclusive homes throughout California and other parts of the United States for well over a decade. I typically use what is commonly called venetian plaster, both in its original lime and marble dust formulation and modern variations. Having studied at over half a dozen studios under some of the most renowned artisans in the country, I have been able to apply this knowledge of color, light, texture, surfaces and plaster and expand on it to raise wall finish applications to a high art form.
The Molto Bene Philosophy
When I start a project I spend quite a bit of time studying the lighting, furniture, fabrics and current style of the home as well as client likes and dislikes and the intent of the room. I am then able to create finishes that don't overwhelm but instead enhance the aesthetic of the space so as to achieve the intended result.
I take a lot of pride in what I do. Working on a client's home is a very personal thing, so I try to take the viewpoint that all of my clients are part of the Molto Bene family. I take care of family.
I check my ego at the door when working with designers and other contractors on my projects. I have my area of expertise as do they. The real focus should be the client.
Unlike many other wall finishers, I take in the whole space. The walls are a back drop to the room that create mood and feel and enhance the other items in the space(furniture, flooring, fabrics), so everything has to work with each other. Molto Bene finishes help make that happen.
Molto Bene's Specialty
My specialty is custom wall finishes using a variety of venetian plasters and techniques. I excel in helping clients when they have seen walls on a vacation, in a restaurant, hotel or magazine and they want to replicate that look in their home.
If you have any questions or ideas for a project, feel free to call (1 800 399 8970) or use the form on the "Contact Us" page to email me. I would be glad to hear from you!
Ciao,
Kevin Connetta
