color consultingYour mood isn’t always the same, nor should your home be. Your mood and energy levels most likely change with the seasons. How to help get you through seasonal transitions? Painting your home in seasonal colors.

Through color consulting, you can decide on the perfect colors for certain aspects of a room based on the current season. During winter, paint an accent wall around your fireplace in a deep winter blue or cozy red. As spring approaches, hire the pros to switch it back to a light grey or a white.

Find the perfect color combination that can boost your mood through color psychology regardless of what the weather is up to outside of your home. Through color consultations, you’ll choose colors that will stand the test of time while offering you what you need in a room.

Here’s why you should get a color consult:

Color Consulting Knows What Works

Color consulting is done by professionals that are able to see how a color works in a room and how it will affect you. They can take a look at the furniture already in place and help you decide what the best fit will be.

They take things like rugs, lighting hues, and your sofa fabric into consideration to carefully plan your desired seasonal color combo. With their in-depth knowledge of the color wheel, they can help you choose complementary colors that will liven up a room and create a high-style atmosphere.

They’ll Offer Ideas You Might Not Normally Consider

Color consulting will expand your range of options when you hire someone who can bring in fresh ideas. Even if you think you know exactly what you want, it’s important to keep an open mind to new ideas. Chances are you’ll end up absolutely loving something you had never had in mind previously.

Consider interior color palettes that might seem non-traditional. Today’s eccentric and unique designs are tomorrow’s trendy, run-of-the-mill color patterns that you’ll see in every home. Stay ahead of the trends by going outside of your comfort zone with color consulting.

When choosing who to have paint your home, find a company with fantastic reviews.

Paint Chips Can’t Be Trusted

This is especially true when it comes to finding the perfect seasonal combo. There are simply too many materials, textures, and colors involved to rely on paint chips when making your decisions on a color palette.

Through color consulting, come up with a palette and live with it for several days. Watch how the colors change in swatches on your wall through different weather patterns. It’s possible that the color you loved on a sunny day you’ll despise on a cloudy one.

Switch It Up

Life is simply too short to live with the same mundane colors in your home for all 365 days a year. Switch things up with exciting, vibrant, seasonal color palettes. Don’t be afraid to try new things.

After all, it’s just paint. And a painted wall can be painted again, and again, and again by skilled professionals. When you’re ready for the seasonal color change up your house has been waiting for, contact us for a free quote!
