The Story
Refusing to use paint or plaster on the interior walls, he reached for an esthetic in his minds eye. An alchemist at heart, he dug into his amply stocked pantry of compounds and pigments and created what is currently, nationally acclaimed as new best product of the year by Interiors and Sources Magazine and has inclusion in the prestigious 2007 Green Spec Directory, produced by Building Green and published by McGraw- Hill.
Mr. Johnson’s design work created the perfect platform for test marketing Tobias Green, as it was included in all of his projects for over a decade. While producing the product from the family garage, other designers began requesting to use Tobias on their projects. With the launch of a dynamic new website, Tobias Green (named for the families deceased dog) leaped into national distribution mode.
Running neck and neck as the company’s key to success is Tobias’ low VOC-green aspects and innovative qualities. The newly named; Tobias Green Interior Wall Finishes, Inc., is revolutionizing an industry that has become accustomed to a more traditional, labor intensive method for achieving a similar high- end look and quality. Embraced by plasterers across the country for its ease of application, Tobias Green is well on its way to becoming the wall finish of choice by conscientious design & building professionals.
