Robin Lechner Interior Designs: INTERIOR PAINT COLOR SELECTION TIPS

INTERIOR PAINT COLOR SELECTION TIPS

With many of you renewing and revitalizing the interior of your homes, I've received many questions about selecting paint colors. I thought some of you might appreciate my sharing answers.

Q. I'm trying to find a nice steely blue paint for my master bath. Any suggestions?

A. If you apply makeup in the bathroom, make certain you have a magnifying makeup mirror with built in lighting that emulates daylight. Blue walls make skin tones look gray, so to compensate, you apply too much cheek color, foundation, and eye shadow. In natural, light you look like a clown.

Personally, for bathrooms that are used for shaving and putting on makeup, I prefer neutral shades on walls. If you have a specific color favorite, accessorize your bath with towels, rugs, window treatments, soap dishes, tissue dispensers, etc

Your questions are always welcome. Post them on my blog, or email: Robin@RobinLechnerDesigns.com

Interior painting is something that can be easily and inexpensively done by any homeowner. Even for the person who has never done any painting, it is a chore that can be accomplished. It just takes the proper procedure and the use of some simple tips. In no time, a room can be transformed just by changing the color.

True Collaboration

Today’s interior design experience is modern, approachable, and interesting. It’s an accumulation of meaningful experiences with a depth of understanding of the end product, resulting in engaging and functional interior design schemes that reflect the unique needs and lifestyles of clients. Modern Interior Design is an authentic lifestyle concept with design schemes that are honest and reflect client aesthetics.

The new model of Interior Designer is that of editor and curator of what I term the culture of design that combines all available resources and involves the client in every aspect of the design process. It’s true collaboration.

As founder and Principal, I have been acknowledged by professional organizations for my hard work, dedication, and contributions to family, career, and community.

A sense of drama and anticipation is created the moment one walks through the front door into the long gallery.

The entry gallery is a low light level space. From the static space of the entry, one enters the dynamic space of the living area illuminated by a flood of natural light. Due to the interior architecture of the space, the long hall opens into the middle of the living space which runs perpendicular. One cannot fully comprehend the volume of the space which is more fully dramatized by moving from relative dimness to brightness and vast openness.

The spatial progression along the series of spaces is guided by the alternating size of the spaces, light level, and perceived ceiling height. The process is reversed moving from the living space into the private areas of the master suite and guest rooms on opposite sides of the entry gallery where darker, more restful colorations are employed.

The overall color palette, weaves a cohesive scheme throughout the apartment. Despite its grand size, I wanted colors to flow rather than compete.
