Colour consultation

Colour is the quickest way to change how a room feels. Joséphine is known for bold, considered colour — clients often say they’d never have been brave enough without her.

What is colour consultation?

A colour consultation helps you choose paint and wallpaper that suit each room’s light, its use and the rest of your home. You leave with a written colour scheme — named shades, finishes and where each goes — so rooms feel distinct yet connected.

Right for you if…

  • Redecorating before a sale or after a move
  • Dark rooms that need lifting
  • Period homes with features to celebrate

The benefits

  • Confidence

    No more tester pots stacked on the floor.

FAQs

Questions about colour consultation

Do you recommend specific paint brands?

We use whichever brand suits the brief and budget — for example, one of our living rooms uses Pigeon by Farrow & Ball. We can also match colours to more affordable or eco-friendly ranges.

Can you help with wallpaper too?

Yes. Wallpaper is a big part of our work, from William Morris prints in an Arts and Crafts house to botanical papers in loft bedrooms.
