The weight of stone and marble precluded the use of these materials for Venetian structures, which were built in water.
They could therefore only be used for setting foundations, which hold up the heavier part of the load. The search for extra-light materials that could be used for the upper levels set the stage for various experiments. The result: Venetianplaster coating - a lightweight material that's uncompromising when it comes to durability and elegance.
