Selecting a Colour Scheme

One of the most essential elements in the creation of an atmosphere in a property is the choice of colour schemes.  As you will probably be aware, there is a very wide range of colours available to choose from nowadays, and this seems to be continually growing.

Quick Tips

• Colours will change with the light
  When choosing a colour, bear in mind that it will look darker or stronger in a large area than it does on a colour chart.  The biggest influence on the final appearance of the chosen colour, particularly on walls and ceilings, will be the amount and type of light in the room.  In general, the poorer the lighting, the darker the paint will appear.

• Use colour testers
  Use a 'colour tester' so that you can assess the effect of a colour in the room it will eventually feature in.  These are available from all good supply shops.

• Test your colours
  Apply the colour testers to pieces of white card; you can then move the piece of card around the room to see how the colour will look in different lighting conditions as well as matching it against furnishings.
