Is Selecting a Paint Color Really That Hard?

1/28/2021

 
​For some reason many people have a hard time selecting the colors for their home. Based on my experience, this is because there are so many paint color options available and the decision to select a color lays the critical foundation for the rest of the design decisions. So it’s a big deal.
Picture
​To help my clients address this, one of CSID’s main offerings is “Color Consultation”, where I use my years of design experience, the patented "Confident Color System", and computer renderings to create, and let you visualize, a harmonious color story especially for you​ - before actually putting any paint on your walls.
 
​The patented Confident Color System is based on the science of the color wheel and on an in-depth in-person color interview with you. Our color selection process is totally about YOU, what you love, what feeling you want to evoke in a room, and what colors and items you already own and wish to feature.
 
After our Color Consultation has been completed I give you all the color information and you are then free to use either a painter of your choice or one of my vetted partners. It’s that simple.
 
So if you’re overwhelmed by all the color options – give me a call and I’ll help you make color selections that will delight you.

​Since our interior design services are located in Sudbury Massachusetts, our readers in the Boston metro area are of acute interest to us. These readers constitute 17% of all our readers – but actually account for 37% or our website’s page views – looking at more pages and staying on the pages longer. They are primarily located in Sudbury, Boston, Concord, Acton, Concordia, Maynard, Wellesley, Dedham, Newton and Waltham; which is great for us since all of these towns are close enough for us to actually be able to visit to help convert these readers into happy clients.
