DEVELOPING A COLOUR SCHEME.
STEP #1 Determine the mood of the room and what activities are to take place in that room. Find your inspiration
Examples: a piece of artwork, rug, pillow, a room from a magazine, or even a favourite article of clothing. Choose three main colours.
STEP #2 Make a list of all items that are staying in the room; of all architectural details; and items that you wish to add to the room.
STEP #3 Determine your most colourful item. Determine how wall colour fits into your scheme.
STEP #4 Create a sample (story) board (show example) using your colour and fabric samples, photos of items you want included (furniture and fixtures), a sample of the hardwood if applicable. This sample board can be done on a piece of foam core board. Assemble all the pieces on a board.
STEP #5 Take sample board to the paint store in order to make some preliminary colour selections.
