Services provided
An architectural
colorist can help you increase the beauty and value of your home
or business. Color is the first thing people notice when they
approach a building, or enter a room. Art First will specify
colors for paint, roofing materials, tile, carpet, and other
surfaces, to create a unified and dynamic effect for your interior
and exterior projects.Art First can
also advise on the best placement of furnishings, lighting, and
artwork, re-create your space with what you have, or improve
it with smart, economical additions.
Unique design for your
needs
Every structure,
like every homeowner, is unique. As an artist, I approach
each project as a new creative opportunity. I don't use
fixed color palettes, because they can't express the individual
nature of a place. I have never duplicated the same color
plan for two different buildings.
Historic and original colors
If your property
has historic merit, I can determine the original paint colors,
and also formulate a color palette which is historically correct
for the architectural style. So, if the paint colors selected
by the first homeowners are not to your taste, there is an opportunity
to adjust the colors and remain true to the spirit of the time
Environmentally friendly

the use of no-odor, low VOC paints and other materials.The DecisionWhen you need
