Color Consulting Atlanta

Distinctive color selections that compliment the architecture, and enhance your property value for interiors and exteriors.

Christina began her business not long after receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from Georgia State University in 1994. She has worked as a professional color consultant for both residential and commercial properties throughout the city of Atlanta.

Interior paint color and exterior paint color consultations for homes and office.

A cohesive color scheme which complements the architecture and feels at home in its surroundings will enhance your property value. Whether married partners or a large HOA, it is especially rewarding to bring homeowners to a consensus on their new paint colors.

Often people know what they want but are challenged to envision new color scheme from small paint color sample. I work with professional color tools and have larger color samples to help you have confidence in your decision.

The color consulting process begins with learning more about your project and your objectives:

I primarily work with Sherwin Williams paint and stain colors and Benjamin Moore color palettes in my color consulting.

I start by asking “How long have you lived here?”. To gain insight in to your color preferences I will ask you” What do you like or not like about what you currently have? Are you painting for re-sale ability or to refresh your long-term home?”

It is especially helpful when homeowners are wanting to make a striking visual change to have some inspirational images from on line, or of homes they have seen in their neighborhoods, to share with me.

I will discuss colors and get a sense of what tones you gravitate toward; color is like food: you cannot tell someone what to like. My process is to select colors and create a cohesive palette- balancing colors trends with timeless elegance. Once I gain insight in to your preferences, I can select colors and coordinate them in tones you prefer.

The front door is an opportunity for more individualized expression of personality. I often refer to Sherwin Williams Historic Color Collections to inspire front door colors. I select stain colors for front doors, decks, steps, fences, porch floors and shake shingles. Exterior color consultations often address ideas for curb appeal and enhancing your landscape design.

Custom front door

Getting a new front door can significantly enhance your home from both inside and exterior. I can discuss options with you to design custom new doors. I work with door fabricators to design doors with proportions and details to enhance and compliment your house’s architectural features.

Book a consultation: For in-person consult or virtual design consultation

For inquiries or to schedule a color consultation, please contact me at me via my email through website, or text me.

Let me know some of your project details: such as what neighborhood you are in, your address, and if you have a preferred paint brand. What is your timeline? Are painters scheduled and ready for you to make a decision, or are you still collecting bids? Send me your cellphone number and indicate if you’d prefer me to respond via text or phone call.

You are welcome to text me photos and we can have a brief discovery call to learn more about how I work.

What is included in color consultation – mapping out color placement

The success of your colors scheme is not just about the colors chosen but also color placement, working with a professional color consultant will make this process less stressful.

Here a list of paintable features which will be listed in the color document.

Once we have arrived at your custom color palette, I will have complimentary color swatches Fed Ex to your home. This will allow you to see the larger samples and ease the decision-making process.

I will put your paint color selection in a document indicating their placement using terms from the list above. Share this document with your paint company so they know what colors each of the hard features on your home are to be painted. Also keep it for your records.

SELECTING PAINT COLORS

Specializing in Interiors & Exteriors

Christina specializes in selecting paint colors for both interiors and exteriors. She assists in the selection of colors to enhance the property, complement the architectural style, while expressing the owner’s individuality.

Private Home in Old Fourth Ward

Long-time residents in Old Fourth Ward transform their home. We changed the siding color to grey which was difficult to coordinate with a brown roof. The results are striking with the orange door they so wanted.

Morningside Neighborhood – Accenting Architecture

Classic white is the best choice to compliment architectural details such as these roman doric columns and craftsman brick.
