Providing an impartial opinion
When you want an objective professional opinion about colors for your projects, my informed perspective will be a useful resource. Because my viewpoint is one where function and ergonomics are the first consideration—and personal color preferences are second—I am able to contribute objectively as needed to the dialogue between you and your client and will be involved in your color choices at any point in the design process, as best suits your needs.
As an IACC qualified color consultant/designer my education includes a multi-disciplinary approach to the functional aspect of color placement and human responses to color. Combining this more scientific view of color selection with a background in fine arts and experience with many methods and materials for color application creates the broad perspective that I bring to your projects.
Creating optimum supportive environments
These critical issues apply to each project:
- Color is more than decoration
- The importance of the psycho-physiological effects of color
- The relationship between visual ergonomics and color
- How the built environment influences well-being
Working with your choice of materials
Because the products you want to use come in many colors and finishes, specifications for the project will usually be based on the resources available among your choices of materials.
Specialty finishes and murals
Our original surface finishes include The Metropolitan Collection, a new concept in decorative finishing that allows you to show actual examples of finishes along with the other design materials you present to your clients. This is our original alternative to more expensive processes of creating decorative finishes for commercial and residential spaces.
If you have already determined your color palette we will work with your color palette in creating decorative finishes for your project. Find out more about our varieties of decorative finishes and murals.
Site evaluation
The first step includes assessing the physical aspects of the site and the needs of the people using the space. Functionality is key in this process. Our Integral Color and Design client profile becomes an important reference. The Color Profile for your client project includes the details of your design goals for the client and their needs and activities. We will refer to this profile during the course of the consultation process.
Exteriors or multiple-building sites
We consider many aspects of the surroundings as well as the people who will be using the buildings.
Supportive Color Design - a Synthesis of Art and Science
Our objective guidelines are grounded in a multi-disciplinary approach, the basis for creating your new color palette.
Palette Review of existing colors
For the times when you need an objective professional review of your existing or planned palette.
Detailed Written Specifications
