Being a Solo Designer is Lonely - and Risky

Frequently Asked Questions

My community is for ANYONE who are looking for a supportive community of like-minded homeowners, decorators, colour enthusiasts, and design professionals.

In this community, you’ll find inspiration, support, and expert advice to help you make confident colour and design choices. You’ll be surrounded by people who understand the joy of finding the right undertone, the excitement of decorating and styling a room, and the satisfaction of creating a space that truly feels like home.

If you’re tired of searching Google for answers––whether you’re a homeowner who aspires to solve decorating challenges and confidently finish your home projects or an aspiring or seasoned designer excited to build a thriving colour business––this community is for YOU.


Of course! You are welcome to upgrade your membership at any time. If you want to downgrade your membership, the change will take effect at the next billing cycle. Note that all membership levels are subject to price increases and previous pricing and benefits will not be applied.




That’s great! You’ll continue to have access to your course on the member site (https://mariakillam.com/my-account/). But now you can also access them inside the community (varies by membership level). That means you can connect with others who have taken the course and ask questions or chat about the content inside Killam Colour Academy.

We’ve had a lot of requests to be able to access the courses on your phone… well, we have an app! Now you can access all the video lessons easily wherever you are with the online community. Search "Maria Killam" in the app store.

And while the courses are included as part of Maria's Killam Colour Academy, they are only a small part of what is available. The value in the membership is the community itself where you can exchange ideas, find encouragement and gain confidence.



There are no refunds for time spent inside Killam Colour Academy. You are welcome to cancel your membership at any time. All cancellations will take effect at the end of the billing cycle.





You can cancel your membership to Killam Colour Academy at any time.

All cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period. Cancellations must be completed prior to the billing date in order to not be charged for the subsequent month. Details on your billing date can be found under Personal Settings > Plans and Purchases.
