Services What we do Colour Consulting Before the initial consultation I suggest clients look at magazines and find pictures with the colours they have in mind. This will give both of us some direction for the meeting. I will meet you at your property to go through a Premium Brand Colour chart. Once a decision is made, colour brush outs are organized with the paint suppliers and a detailed schedule is given to the client to forward to their painter of choice. Services: Selection of paint colours to choose from: Dulux, Resene, Murobond, Porters, Wattyl. Professional Painters can be organised Brush out samples supplied ranging from small to A4 samples. Wall paper swatches and samples Interior Decorating After an initial discussion on the phone an appointment is made. The first meeting is to discuss the styles, individual taste and the look the client is trying to obtain. Advice and samples will be then given on the following: Colour (paint and wall papers) Lighting Furnishing (through retailer, wholesalers and individually made pieces) Re-upholstery (refreshes that special piece from an auction, or grandma’s rocker, or freshens up that 70’s look sofa.)
