Colour Consulting
Have you ever walked into a room and felt that it was just wrong, but not really been able to put your finger on why? What about getting the sense when you see a reno posted by a friend on social media or the like, that things clash, or are unharmonious, or simply just not ‘nice’ to look at?
Elk Valley Painting & Decorating recently spent 3 days in Vancouver with Certified True Colour Expert and design guru Maria Killam, learning all about the undertones in neutrals and how to properly identify and select harmonious colour schemes to ‘pull a room together’. We are able to help take the guess work out of colour selection, and ensure that you are provided with all the information to make an informed and educated choice when it comes to your renovations or new builds. We can assist in simple ‘single colour’, one room selections, or putting together whole-house colour palettes. We can even advise on hard finishes such as countertop, cabinet and backsplash to ensure your home or vacation rental retains its value for many years to come.
Our methodology is simple – classically themed hard finishes will provide you with a timeless blank canvas from which to add your personal touch, colours, patterns and current trends. Whilst you may love the current trend of mosaic tiles, remember that most trends have come and gone within 7-10 years – unless you are planning on renovating your kitchen, bathroom, entrance, mudroom or wherever else you might use tile every 7-10 years, a better choice may be a classic white or cream subway tile, from which you can add and remove pops of current colour trends as they come and go, in the form of soft furnishings, artwork, or even wall paint.
