Preview color before painting
Wouldn’t it be nice to see what the colors you choose will look like before you buy a drop of paint? I’ve been working on a historic Victorian mansion renovation which I introduced in a previous post and this spring the new exterior colors will be applied giving it a pretty impressive transformation. Many people were involved in the color decision process and it was important that everyone could see how it would look on the house first. Using an old black and white photograph showing the house with its original mansard roof (which is in the process of being restored) I introduced the proposed colors directly onto the photograph for several different color approaches and it was a very helpful tool leading to an eventual color palette decision. Not all clients require this step but when needed it’s a tremendous help. Here is the original photograph along with the winning palette color preview for you to see.
