Welcome

A free creative resource for designers, decorators & interior painters.

If you are new to this Paint Some Colour blog then welcome. We have readers from around globe; from Australia to India, Japan and the U.S.A, as well as here at home in the U.K.

I've worked in the design industry for well over 25 years & my approach to colour selection is practical, creative and systematic.
My personal way of choosing colour is based on an analytical engagement with the subject and the creation of a visual story, supported by a unique library of images and materials collected over the years.

The last place I look to find the colour of my dreams is on a paint chart. It's not that I never go there, I do. It's just that the manufacturers paint chart is the final tool in the decision making process. I use them only to qualify my choices.

I'm also deeply interested in the historical evolution and the manufacturing of paint; its application and range of finish, from dead matt through to ultra gloss. The way light plays on a decorated surface, is as important as the very colour itself.

I work my craft professionally with PLAIN ENGLISH & BRITISH STANDARD CUPBOARD MAKERS
Showrooms in Hoxton Square, Marylebone London and Suffolk. England.

I also offer a COLOUR CONSULTANCY sevice

Please feel free to ask me about colour, paint, materials or decorating.

Other than that, please enjoy.
