How to Create a Color Scheme, Part 1

Creating Color Schemes - Where to start?

This is the big hurdle that stops people from giving it a go.

It is important that you have read through the website and familiarised yourself with some color theory and delve into some color articles to get you thinking, then you will have a better understanding of the product we are about to create with.

 

Where to start? This is a much-debated question

The first thing that you need to do is to take a brief. This means sitting down with the client (or yourself) and writing down the expectations of the client, what style they like, what they would like to achieve, their budget, timeframe etc.

All the parameters for the project.

Once you have this in place you can start.

Carpet, a great place to start.

So when starting with a blank slate, I would say with the selection of the floor-covering product.

This is due to the fact that it covers a large area has distinctive tactile qualities, everyone will walk on it, and feel it and it will set the mood.

Carpet – soft and comforting, timber – warm and inviting, Granite – cool and elegant, Terracotta tiles – warm, rustic and casual.

From there, the next item would be your canvas – the walls

With the addition of yellow paint on the wall in this entry, the furniture has been highlighted as the yellow enhances the color of the timber.
