A note on color for the home.
Some of these colors have made it onto our walls. Others are favorites we haven’t used yet.
David tends to choose paint very early in the morning, still bleary-eyed and without his glasses. We believe this has had a direct impact on the work. By the time he can see properly, someone has usually opened the can.
Obviously, we’ve taken some liberties with the names. We prefer our version, and we’ll be sending the manufacturer a memo with our proposed corrections to their names.
The general professional guidance is to paint generous samples and view them at different times of day under different lighting conditions.
David’s professional guidance is to keep the swatch in your pocket and pull it out occasionally while looking for crumpled receipts and candy wrappers. If you still like it after a few appearances, you’re good to go.
Screen swatches are approximate paint colors.
