Color Consultation and Design Styling

Reading samples in your own light, one room at a time

We start with the room as it is: the floors, the countertops, the furniture you're keeping and the way light moves through it. Samples get looked at on your actual walls, at different times of day and again under your lamps at night, instead of being decided from a fan deck in one sitting.

Then we go room by room. Rooms that open onto each other have to flow, so a hallway, a kitchen and a living room get weighed together. A bedroom that wants to feel calm and a home office that needs to feel awake can sit on the same floor plan without clashing. Businesses get the same treatment, with a look at how the colour reads at the counter, in the waiting area and on the exterior.

Sheen and trim get settled before the first can is opened

Sheen changes the colour as much as the pigment does. A flat or matte finish hides wall imperfections and looks soft in daylight. A satin or semi-gloss wipes clean more easily, which is worth thinking about in humid kitchens, bathrooms and busy entryways. We talk through where each one belongs so nobody discovers it after the walls are done.

Trim, doors and ceilings need the same attention. White comes in many temperatures, and the wrong one beside a warm wall looks dingy while the right one makes the wall look cleaner. We settle trim and ceiling colours together with the wall colours, so the whole room is chosen as a set.

Schedule a professional color consultation to review samples in your actual lighting conditions and receive recommendations for each room. We serve homes and businesses from Palm Beach Gardens through Delray Beach and Boca Raton, and the plan is written down before painting starts.
