The advantages of hiring a skilled colour designer

These professionals have a well-trained understanding of using colour harmoniously to create the desired effect within a room. Colour is such an important visual aspect of any space that using a hue that clashes can make a space feel uninviting. By having a colour consultation and adding one of these colour experts to your team, you can be confident that your room will match your personality while also being visually pleasing. They will also have an understanding of the current colour trends in New Zealand which can keep your styling contemporary.

How to choose the best colour designer for your project

There are more colour specialists in New Zealand than you might think which makes choosing one all the more challenging. The best approach to selecting the right candidate for your project starts by looking at their portfolios and customer testimonies. Once you’ve narrowed down a few potential candidates, you can move on to arranging meetings with them to discuss the project, scope and budget to see if they’re a good fit. Some of the questions to ask a potential colour consultant during the initial meeting include:

• What is your approach to colour design?
• How will you help me choose colours that I will love in the final design?
• Why can’t I rely on paint swatches when choosing colours?
• How will you present your design proposals?
• What else will be included in your design?

What kind of impact does colour have on a design?

Colours can have a dramatic impact on any space. Dark hues used correctly can make a space feel larger, while light tones can give a welcoming effect. Hues that are not well-matched can cause irritation and unstable moods.

How does a colour consultation work?

During a colour consultation, the professional will discuss the project with you. This will include your vision for the space, what feelings you want the space to evoke as well as what your favourite colours are. With this information, they can create a unique scheme to bring out the best in your space.

What qualifications does a colour consultant have?

These consultants will often have a bachelor’s degree in interior design or a similar field. Apart from this, they’ll also usually be trained in colour psychology and theory.
