The Benefits of Using a Designer Before You Paint

You’re an expert on your own home. You know each little crease and crevice, every crooked door frame, each quirky light feature and all of the secret rooms and closets. As such, there’s a good chance you probably consider yourself an expert on all of your design and decorating choices, as well. While we have no doubt that you can turn any room in your home into a masterpiece, have you considered a consultation with a designer?

Though you may not have thought about enlisting a designer’s help for your next Orlando painting project, you’ll probably be surprised by the results. Here are just a few benefits of talking to a designer before you paint:

• They can help you pick the perfect palette. Sure, you have a general idea of what colors you’d like, but do you know which complementary colors would make the perfect accents or trims? How about which accent colors will give your room a warm tone versus a cool one? Interior designers are visual artists and have a great deal of experience with combining colors and accents to evoke certain moods and feelings. Next time you’re not sure what colors you want beyond one main hue, talk to a designer.
• Paint sheen? No problem. As we’ve mentioned before, determining the perfect paint finish for each room can be somewhat of a difficult task. How do you know when to use satin versus eggshell? Will your bedroom shine like a disco ball with a high-gloss paint? Your interior designer is a pro at determining which finishes provide the best benefits for each room, as well as which level of sheen will work best with your selected paint colors.
• Best of all, it’s complementary. As part of our interior painting process, New Ceilings schedules time for each one of our clients to speak with a Sherwin-Williams interior designer right from the comfort of their own homes. The designer can assess the natural and artificial lighting, shape, and angles of the room to help you select the perfect colors and make your designing dreams come true.

When you schedule your appointment with our trusted Orlando painting designer, you’re taking the first step to creating a beautiful, professionally-decorated home that is uniquely you. To plan your free initial estimate and consultation, or to learn more, call New Ceilings at (407) 378-6040 today.
