Description
You’ve always had a good eye. You can tell when something looks off – whether it’s in your home (or a client’s home). But, how do you explain it to someone else?
Which part, exactly, isn’t right – and how do you fix it – without making things worse?
In two days, you’ll discover how to look at the big picture to make the right colour and decorating choices for your home – but also the confidence that comes with understanding what’s missing or wrong and how to make it better.
💌 Once you enroll, we’ll send you the WowBox filled with all the materials you need for the training.
What else will I learn?
⭐️ Day 1 is all about Learning a New Language for Colour:
- The three most powerful and effective ways to compare and describe colour, including neutrals, whites and saturated colours.
- My System for Understanding Undertones™. Walk away from confusion about the nuances of neutrals forever by learning my specific and effective new language for the 9 most common and useful undertones of neutrals.
- Why white doesn’t have to be complicated. My system reduces the overwhelming world of whites to the 4 most useful gradations of the best whites you will ever need
- You’ll also discover some colour and design history, aka, “What does knowing about past colour trends have to do with me in 2022?” A LOT actually. To work well with colour, you need to have an understanding of where we’ve been and where we are going.
- Finally, I will share my perspective as a designer. I believe that the best spaces are simple and TIMELESS so you can get off the renovation cycle and express yourself through styling and decorating.
- And YES! I will share my best tips for developing your decorating and styling skills. Because that’s where the MAGIC IS!
⭐️ Day 2 is all about Making Colour Choices:
In Day 1 we established a firm foundation for comparing and describing colour. Equally important is learning the process for choosing colour in real life situations. Which elements are most important. What comes first? How to coordinate the colour of anything from tile to soft furnishings.
To create spaces that fill you with joy, you need a system.
- Learn to create beautifully coordinated combinations of finishes for timeless bathrooms and kitchens that are a delight to style and decorate. If you get it right, you’ll never have to renovate again because of a trendy choice with an expiry date.
- Learn the huge potential of these gorgeously simple and versatile, TIMELESS backdrops I’m teaching you to create for expressing yourself (or your client’s unique personality) with decorating and styling.
- Learn the best place to start to create perfect colour palettes for decorating any room.
- Learn how to make the best of less than ideal design situations with the most flattering colour choices. Often, you’ll get much more out of decorating and styling a room well than by fixing expensive colour mistakes.
- There are endless decorating challenges and colour problems to be solved. It all takes practice and experience! But in Day 2, you will gain invaluable insight into my own experiences and process for solving colour puzzles and decorating challenges of all kinds.
