You have a basic idea that you don’t like or need smooth walls, which is already helpful for making a good decision. Here you have now read the options, but ultimately everything is possible and you can make something out of everything that you like. Back then, many years ago, we painted the wall white with a cross stroke and afterwards got a great result with a glaze from Caparol; at that time, earth tones were often used, which I still like today; it then looked rather marbled and really good. Later we also worked with single colors using that technique, so I never had to sand it off. It simply depends on your desired goal and that you say you want to do it that way, because there are no children and being in the mood for it is great, and then I would look for exactly something like that, which I also enjoy doing myself as work. I believe you already know what you want and now just have to decide or try out the right product, color, technique. Changes often come during the execution anyway, at least that’s how it is for us :D

Definitely... thanks for your help!

I also think that our view could still change quite a bit shortly before the work begins, or we might change our minds again shortly beforehand.

One more question: my wife found nice colors by Alpina which, according to a seller, can also be mixed with, for example, Knauff Rollputz. Does something like that actually work?

If not, I would have to apply the white Rollputz everywhere and then paint the colored walls I want afterwards with a dispersion paint, correct?

As you say, I would like to hear various arguments and then consider for myself what suits us best.

I am a quiet reader in the forum — there are very often helpful tips/tricks and also quite a few experience reports, which of course help me the most.

I am not a painter, so I can share my opinion with you. I would color the textured paint with the matching tinting color. Of course, you can mix everything, but in the end, you would mix Knauf paint (which becomes textured paint with sand grains in it) with Alpina paint, which makes little sense to me. You can have any desired tone mixed for your textured paint at the painter's (or do it yourself). But since you probably have to paint twice anyway, it might be worth considering doing the first coat with white textured paint and the second with the color. For the second color, depending on the wear, I would maybe check if it is scrub-resistant. I once had a troubling horror experience with mixing when we wanted to beautify our bedroom back then with a textured plaster. For that, we even bought a Venetian trowel and experimented, everything according to the painter's instructions. For the primer, we were told we could use "normal" white paint, and we were very clever and used Alpina white at the time. After that, we applied the plaster thickly with great effort, and the next day, the paint was supposed to go on... We were shocked because the entire plaster in the room was cracked and looked like a dried-up waterhole in the desert. We then had to remove the expensive plaster from the wall layer by layer with a spatula; more or less it fell off by itself because it hadn't bonded with the substrate. We were later told that the paint (used by us as a primer) had practically taken the water away from the plaster. What a drama that now makes you smirk. But that says nothing about Alpina, as they recently received the best test results for some products; it just didn't work together back then. I would take white textured paint first and then color; otherwise, you'll have various paint pots lying around.

Crazy... But it all sounds logical to me!

I also think we should do the first coat throughout the whole house completely with white paintable plaster.

The second coat then with Alpina white (ORIGINAL – very important, there is also the cheap Alpina paint) – as you say, the paint received very, very good test results but it’s not exactly cheap.

Alternatively, the second coat with the Alpina paint we want. But I think it sounds like a plan if you first paint with paintable plaster and then finish the second coat with a dispersion paint.

Always only the ones with the cat! (Filler words into the toilet also make the cat happy)
