Styling With Colour

This service involves the placement of furniture, soft furnishing and decorations. We know that it isn’t always an option to replace all the interiors of a home. There may be an old piece that has been handed down that needs to be considered. We often achieve this by changing the colour of the walls, maybe consider adding wallpaper behind it, giving the piece space so it can make a statement.

Styling service can be addressed in different ways. You could use the service to get inspired or to fine tune your ideas. Sometimes fresh eyes make all the difference to the space you are considering to alter.

We can co-ordinate existing pieces with potential new pieces and build a design look that incorporates your personality. This can be done with the use of a mood board by incorporating colours, flooring, furniture and decoration.

It could also be used to get a potential shopping list of items that pull your design ideas and colour together. We call these mood boards which will give you a design blue-print of how to achieve the look you want. Almost like a visual shopping list for the pieces to create your look. Then you would be able to investigate what’s available to purchase each piece at your own leisure.

Testimonials

We appreciate hearing feedback from our clients. Below are a few testimonials from satisfied CONNECTING COLOUR clients.

I would recommend Kim Pavli without hesitation to anyone interested in achieving harmony with either their interior or exterior decor. Kim's approach is to attune herself with her client's style and lifestyle. Asking questions about the areas requiring a change as well as what one is trying to achieve. She then works through the colour options and presents various colour schemes to choose from whilst considering size of area, play of light and also taking in to consideration elements in a room that are not going to change. Kim listened to my ideas and y narrowing down the options to the colour family I was interested in we then found the perfect hue in that for our colour scheme. I am so pleased with the results and love the colours in my home both inside and out. They are just what I wanted and Kim was able to provide the exact shades that create harmony throughout. I am impressed with the level of Kim's professionalism combined with her down to earth style of giving decorating advice.

Thanks Kim! I would like to let you know I love the wall colour you chose for us in our new home. It's warm and inviting and it is much appreciated.

- Rhonda

I had the pleasure of working with Ms Pavli on the renovations of my kitchen. She provided colour consulting assistance for all aspects of the kitchen and also selected paint colours for the kitchen and adjoining dining room, lounge room and hallway. During our involvement with Ms Pavli in regards to our renovations we found her extremely helpful and professional. She listened to our ideas and needs, skilfully melded competing and different ideas that my husband and I had, and produced an outcome we were delighted with. I would not hesitate in employing her skills again and have recommended her to others!

I just thought I would let you know that our house has been painted with the colours you suggested. It looks amazing! Thank you so much. For economical reasons we didn't go with the wallpaper around the fireplace but a whitewash effect instead and it all looks great! Thank you again!

- Sharon

The paintwork at our house is almost finished and we are absolutely thrilled with the colour choice. Thank you for your ongoing support in choosing the colours.
