It depends. The interior side of the exterior shell walls will be of concrete. You can furr it out if you want and install drywall, but this is a completely unnecessary cost. The interior wall is concrete and it receives a fine plaster coat (plaster is basically a very smooth form of concrete). Almost all homes in Europe have plastered interior walls. No, our interior finish is not as flat as drywall – the best comparison is a lath and plaster wall in an old house.
