Microcement Colours

The full Oltre Style range — 48 colours. Coded STY02 to STY48 plus White Base, and coordinated with Viero’s Marmorino range so a colour can be matched across different finishes in the same property. The swatches below were photographed from the physical fan deck, so treat them as a guide to the range rather than an exact match — see the note at the foot of this page.

Warm Neutrals & Taupes

The heart of the range and the most specified for floors. Reads warm without going yellow, and hides everyday marks better than a cool grey.

Greys & Charcoals

Cool through to near-black. Strong in bathrooms and on feature walls; the darkest need good natural light or they close a room down.

STY42

Sands & Ambers

Warmer and more saturated. These carry a room on their own and pair well with oak, brass and warm-toned brassware.

STY29

Terracotta & Clay

Earth reds and burnt tones. Used sparingly — a single wall, a bench, an alcove — rather than across a whole floor.

Pinks & Roses

Muted and dusty rather than sweet. STY31 and STY32 in particular read as neutrals in most light.

STY36

STY41

Lilacs & Soft Greys

Barely-there tints that shift with the light. Best judged on a physical sample — no screen renders these honestly.

STY38^*

STY39

STY40

Greens

Three soft sages. Quiet, and easier to live with than they look on a chart.

Choosing

Never choose from a screen

This is not a disclaimer — it’s Viero’s own guidance, printed on the first page of the fan deck.

The chart is printed, the finish is not

Viero produce the colour card by a printing process. The applied product is a mineral surface. There will always be a slight difference between the two, and a thicker or thinner film shifts the tone again.

Daylight, or a calibrated lamp

Viero recommend checking colour under natural sunlight. A warm bulb pulls everything yellow; a cool one drains it. Your room at 4pm is the only test that counts.

Texture changes the colour

A trowelled finish holds shadow in its relief and reads darker than the same colour polished flat. Choose texture and colour together.

Cards fade, and drying matters

Fan decks shift with age and UV exposure. And the applied product must dry naturally — forced drying can change the finished colour substantially.

How to actually pick one. Narrow it to three from this page, then see them properly: physical boards at the Gorringe Kitchens & Bathrooms display in Goring-by-Sea, or I’ll bring samples to your project and leave them with you for a few days. Viero also recommend a practical test before committing to a colour on a large area, which I’ll always do on a bigger job.
