Home Decor Color - Finding Perfect Paint Palettes

Home Decor Color - Finding Perfect Paint Palettes

What you'll learn

Description

Find color schemes for any creative project
If you’d love to use beautiful, original color but can’t decide which colors, or if you lack the confidence to commit, then this course is for you! 
I have spent many years teaching color theory to professional designers, and in this class I’ll share the shortcuts and tricks of the trade that interior designers use to make sure that colors and clients are perfectly matched, and that each client gets a perfect palette of paint for their home.  
What you will learn.  
You will begin by working conceptually to create color inspiration, and then use this to generate paint and pigment references that can be applied for real!  
By the end of the class you’ll have a recipe of color for a room in your home.  Or, for any other creative project!
Why you should take this class?
Like good food, good color is one of life's great joys!  More than ever you need your home to feel personal, and to be your haven.  With opportunities for color in the home being almost limitless, knowing where to start can be bewildering, and committing to color can be scary.  
The class handbook gives you a simple framework for building an original palette of color that is matched to your home and that makes your heart sing.  Even better, it then guides you to track down your colors in the real world.  
Who should take this class?
This class is suited to all levels; you don’t need any prior knowledge and the class could help experienced professionals too.  I will share how professionals generate color schemes on demand.  
The project can be completed on a laptop, tablet, or smartphone using free internet tools and common software such as PowerPoint, Keynote, Procreate, Photoshop, or Indesign.  I’ll also suggest ways you can follow along on paper using paint, pencils, or crayons, and physical paint samples.
