How to do a Professional Color Consultation

What happens here

The video begins with the painter discussing the color consultation process with a client named Robin. The painter emphasizes designing a color scheme that will impress viewers and acknowledges that many clients are unsure about their color preferences. He suggests finding inspiration from other houses in the neighborhood and offers to match colors from pictures or addresses provided by the client. Robin expresses her initial thoughts, noting that her house features stucco accents, which differ from the brick accents she's seen on other homes, leading her to question how material types influence color choices. She likes houses with good contrast.

all right today I'm here with Robin we're going to be painting Robin's house so uh Robin you need some help with colors I do you do I really need help which is not unusual so typically I like to do color consults I like to work with my um customers and uh designing the colors for the house and I want everybody to drive by say it's an amazing color scheme and and I want you to say it's amazing paint job cuz you can just see it up close most of the customers I deal with don't um have no idea you know what they want on their house which is totally fine and you don't have to be an expert in colors one thing I do usually ask is um have you seen any houses you like in the neighborhood or around the valley and is um and if you've seen any if you take pictures of it or give me an address I can drive by that house and take a look at it and I can match it myself so I went driving around and so I saw some great colors and I like um the contrast in some of the homes but what I did notice is that my my home is has some stucco accents and other homes had brick accents or no no accents or different U materials and so I in my mind I was thinking well how is is that going to work would I choose different colors based on the material accents that are on the house so yeah that was a question I had for you today yeah and that's a good point and so uh one of the things about your house you do have stucco on it and um one of the great things about stucco is you can paint it and so and it actually does need to be painted it has a different texture and we can paint it a different color than the siding and um it can be an accent color and it will absolutely look amazing so you got sucko on both sides of the house and it'll balance out and balance out really well but I like to um typically start off by saying um do you want a greenhouse do you want a brown house do you want a blue house do you want a yellow house or a black house I mean what in your mind what color would be ideal for your house so um so the stule reminds me of Southwest the Southwest colors so I probably want to stick with that color scheme more of a that Southwest look even though it's not a a Southwest home but the stule just reminds me of that and I I kind of like those softer lighter colors with some contrast so maybe some Browns in with the lighter colors okay so starting off just just
