Keeping up on Color Trends

Keeping up on Color Trends

One of the important jobs of a color consultant is keeping up on the color trends. Many customers want to know what’s “in” and they want their home's paint colors to reflect the latest trends. One of the best tools for me is provided by Sherwin Williams and they call it Colormix. Architects, designers and specifiers gather to hear about the upcoming trends in color and design.

The trend for 2012 was color that related to the earth, i.e., sky blues, mossy greens, sandy beiges, etc. Colormix 2013 is entitled “Opposites Attract” and will be held at the California Historical Society in San Francisco in a joint celebration of color and the 75^th anniversary of the treasured Golden Gate Bridge. The senior designer for Sherwin Williams will be talking about the magnetic pull of the color spectrum and how the color trends coming in 2013 will be the palettes that reflect our diverse lifestyles, mindsets and design philosophies. They will look at moods generated by color, from electric, high-voltage lime greens to moody, murky shadowy grays and blues.

Many of my customers spend more time worrying about paint color selection than using the right painting product. Sharing color trends is just one more tool to put in my tool belt to help them select the right color to create the mood that they want for their home.

We would recommend them highly. [They] painted and did a good job. Kept everything clean and cleaned up after, very polite.

I wanted to have my kitchen cabinets painted but knew that that was a job that required skill and expertise. I called Brooks Painting and the experience from start to finish was perfect! Everyone I dealt with was personable and good at their jobs. They spent time answering questions, explaining the exact process, and did the work precisely as promised. They even did a few other small jobs (repairing and painting 2 water damaged ceilings) to perfection. And everything was neat and clean when they left! And the cabinets – better than I could have hoped for. Esteban is a master craftsman who was meticulous in every aspect of his work. The finish is smooth as glass with no imperfections. I couldn’t be happier!

Consummate professionals! We hired Brooks to repaint the exterior of our house, and they did a fantastic job. The paint looks wonderful, everyone was also on time, friendly, and respectful of our property. Exceptional communication through the entire process. I was worried about damage to the landscaping near the house (bad previous experience with another outfit), but they were all very understanding and the crew was super careful. Did what they said they would do with no weirdness, no smoking, no radio, and they cleaned up after themselves nicely. This picky customer is very happy!

We chose Brooks Painting based on their excellent reputation. It was an excellent choice! We had them do a complete exterior and almost complete interior painting of our two story house. They were done separately, while we were out of town. We are very pleased with the quality of the work. They even fixed up a few mistakes made by a crew that painted a portion of our interior ceilings a month prior (removal of asbestos popcorn ceiling), at no extra charge. Cleanup was great, also. They repaired some dry rot that was uncovered (extra charge, but worth it), and they even moved furniture back into place as well as put back the curtain rods that I had taken down, which wasn't expected. I highly recommend them, and will use them again for any future paint jobs.

It was fun working with Chris and his crew. I’ve never had a contracted job go so smoothly from start to finish. The office was responsive to my needs, Corey was patient and helpful while I made color choices, and Chris made sure I was happy with the crew’s work every step of the way. Gabriel does amazing work as well. Very much a perfectionist like Chris. I don’t have a bad thing to say. The job is absolutely stunning and I’ve had so many neighbors tell me it’s beautiful. I’m happy to put one of your signs in my front yard if you’d like so people know as they drive by who did the work. Thank you Brooks Painting. I will be recommending you to anybody who asks.

Bud was always available and extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to go that extra step and also explain things thoroughly.

Brooks Painting painted our home in Sacramento in March of 2022. Tim did a great job power washing our home. Corey, Flint, and Kristen were very helpful in the bid and. planning. process. The painting crew was excellent. Arrived on time each day and the project was finished in 5 days as promised. All worked very hard.

This is a business you can trust to do an excellent job and keep all promises. Came on time, completed in time stated, beautiful result!

Brooks Panting Inc. just finished painting the exterior of our house. The crew did a terrific job. The house is a mid century modern with redwood paneling and an unusual amount of trim work. The Brooks crew was efficient, the quality of the painting was exceptional and the work was completed on time! Because of the age of the house several panels needed to be replaced. Brooks had the expertise to closely match the new paneling with the old paneling. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. They are professionals!

Daniel Dykstra

Chris and Gabriel were amazing. Corey was patient and helpful in answering questions and while I decided on colors. The office was easy to contact and had good follow-through. Thank you so much to Brooks for a job I could not possibly be happier with. Feel free to use me as a reference!
