Colour Consulting
Overview
What to expect
Colour on a screen looks nothing like colour on a wall. The light in Orange is different from the light in Sydney. South-facing rooms stay cool and blue. North-facing rooms warm up everything you put on them. John has painted over 3,000 homes and has seen what works in Central West light and what falls flat. A quick conversation at the quoting stage saves hours of second-guessing at the paint counter.

- On-site colour advice during the quoting walk-through
- Dulux colour matching and custom tinting

How it works
The right colours for your home and light
Colour is personal, but it's also technical. We consider your architecture, natural light, existing finishes and the surrounding landscape to get it right.
Initial discussion
John visits your home and talks through what you like, what you want to change, and any fixed elements the palette needs to work with.
Palette development
We develop a shortlist of options, considering aspect, light conditions at different times of day, and neighbouring properties.
Large-format samples
Test patches painted directly on the wall or surface so you can see the colour in your actual light before committing.
Confirmed scheme
Final palette documented — every surface, every product, every finish. Then we get to work.
