The Colour Chameleon, Paint Color Consultant

The Colour Chameleon, Paint Color Consultant Patricia Smith is a certified paint color consultant & redecorator. She’ll bring your paint color ambitions to life. She serves most areas of North Atlanta.

Undertones, lighting, paint surface, even furniture affects how we see paint color. But not everyone has a trained eye for color. That can lead to hard-earned dollars wasted on paint samples and worse yet, full room repaints. The Colour Chameleon's mission is to make the process of paint change fun, efficient and cost effective by helping you navigate the multi-faceted process of paint color chang

e. As a certified home color consultant, I use Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore designer kit colors. My process includes understanding what you want, and evaluating your home space to narrow down best choices. You’ll see these choices displayed in easy-to-view large color swatches. With prior professional experience in the residential painting industry, I’ll also teach you how to correctly test your final color choices, and discuss which paints and finishes best fit your lifestyle & budget. I can also offer you insights on what to look for when choosing qualified painters. Like I say, don't throw good money away on bad paint choices; let me help steer you in the right direction! About myself, I am a southerner on both sides of the map; I’m a native Southern Californian who moved to Georgia in the early 90’s. I love everything about Atlanta: the people, the annual explosion of springtime color, the sports landscape and the abundant food choices. For 14 years, I helped business owners locally market their products & services in sporting goods, food service, even auto repair. I spent the next 13 years in sales & project management, first in promotional apparel, and most recently for a residential painting company where I learned the intricacies of the professional painting industry. Being a lifelong DIY painter, I know I surprised a painter or 2 with my painting knowledge and ability to speak to them in fluent Spanish. What I never expected was to leave that world knowing more about carpentry repairs than most men. Being able to use my creativity, and work with people simultaneously is what drives & motivates me every day!

What a change! Bright green siding made the brick look orange. But SW Canvas Tan paired with a warm taupe like SW Stone Lion brought out the best in the brick & mortar. This one has earned a spot on my Top 10 most memorable list.

Mushroom taupe colors like SW Loggia are trending for a good reason!

There's greige, taupe and then there's mushroom taupe. If you want taupe with a little less gray feel, this family of colors may be right for you. But they do require testing because the differences in sunlight & shade vs traditional taupe is subtle. For this project SW Loggia accentuated the richness of the new stained wood ceilings and modern black stair railings, without reading too gray or yellow.

It's been a busy spring with lots of exterior color consults. And while paint color is important, don't forget paint quality is too. Better quality paint means better color retention, better protection against the hot GA summers, and longer paint life. There are different grades of paint from cheap to midgrade to premium. Know what your painter plans to use and educate yourself on whether that choice is best for your home.

"I don't pay the mortgage" is my common reply when a client asks "Which would you pick". Color consulting isn't about what I like, but rather what would make a client happy to come home to...that I think works. Offering choices not only with colors but placement of colors, can make all the difference. Learn more about my color consulting process at https://TheColourChameleon.com
