House ColorsHistoric Design Consulting will help you select a color scheme that will both reflect your tastes and be appropriate for the style, age and setting of your historic home. We use period paint swatches, brochures and advertising to develop color schemes that complement your homešs surroundings and accent its special features.After you have submitted the form found on the "Getting Started" page I will contact you to confirm your information and ask you for additional information if needed. After I have reviewed your information and photographs, I will send you a preliminary report containing two color schemes via email or U.S. Post. Each color scheme will include one or more body colors and complimentary colors for trim, shutters and other details along with color numbers from a national paint manufacturer such as Sherwin-Williams. You will then have an opportunity to study the color suggestions to see how they complement your home and its surroundings. If you approve of one of these color schemes, I will prepare a report that will describe color placement in detail. However, if you are not satisfied with one of the initial two schemes, we will develop another color scheme using your feedback and start the process again. Please click on the Getting Started button and fill out the form to begin the process of developing an original paint scheme for your home.
