Step 1 · Analyze Existing Floor Finish

Carefully observe the existing floor finish. Note its dominant color, as well as any subtle undertones (e.g., warm, cool, neutral). Consider the material of the floor (wood, laminate, tile, carpet) as this can influence how light reflects and affects color perception. Take clear, well-lit photographs of the floor in different lighting conditions to aid in color analysis.
