Featured Reviews for Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto

Greenberg Design Gallery
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 5, 2020
“As a veteran of Silicon Valley, I have recognized that integrated platforms provide the best value for end users. What if a construction company could integrate the various disciplines associated with remodeling/new home construction into a platform like approach? Imagine having to deal with a separate architect, a separate 3D renderer, a separate interior designer, various showrooms where all care about their own individual services and products? As we look back at our experience with the Greenberg Design Gallery team together with the Greenberg Construction team; from the original concept stage, to budgeting, design, and implementation/cost trade-offs, to securing our permit, we have recognized that indeed the team at Greenberg have implemented a very efficient platform. The team is highly technical and uses state of the art architectural design tools to take their clients through the journey in a very timely manner. In fact, we believe the value we have received in the design to permit phase will eventually save us a considerable amount as we anticipate minimal changes during the build phase. Greenberg architected our new home vision in the first month, and by empowering us with their 3D modeling package, we were able to request modifications and fine tune our entire house in the ensuing two months. In parallel, we were visiting their showroom in Palo Alto (where they have a rich selection of material), and spent quality time with their interior designers to help us reach consensus on the majority of the type of finishes for our house. So in approximately three months we went from vision to design to permit and material type selection. Of course, the entire design and office team’s great attitude and genuine care ties all the loose ends. We highly recommend you visit Greenberg Design Gallery in person to assess for yourself.”
Coddington Design
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 10, 2013
“Melanie designed my kitchen remodel. She patiently listened to my concerns and desires. Her first recommendation was to look at many kitchens on Houzz and add the ones I liked to an ideabook. This made it easy for me to see what style I wanted. Her design was wonderful. She opened up the space, and made the most of what we had. Melanie helped me with questions and problems throughout the remodel. Melanie made the process as smooth as possible. We love our new kitchen.”
Christy Collection International

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 19, 2021
“We can't say enough great things about Christy Collection and Shelf-O-Matic products! They are 1/3 to 1/2 the price of any ShelfGenie and the personal attention and care given to our projects was unprecedented! We have used Shelf-O-Matic for projects in several states and the attention to detail and quality of work was fantastic! We are so happy with the communication and quality of work! They have a lifetime warranty and replacement plan with no questions asked...also, the warranty is completely transferable to any future purchasers of the property.”
Kerstin Dieterich Designs
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 19, 2013
“Kerstin worked with us on a bathroom remodel. It was evident from the start that she has a broad base of knowledge in design and construction. We were impressed with how she worked with vendors and contractors, taking control of the project in a professional manner. She understands what the client wants while at the same time offers valuable opinions. Our project was completed without a hitch and we could not be happier. I'd definitely recommend Kerstin for any design project.”
Crewzz, Inc
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 23, 2022
“My entire experience with Monica was great. She was organized, talented (she has an amazing eye), timely, priced very fairly, and most of all, she really listened to my ideas and helped me to figure out my "vision" for decorating my house. She had so many great ideas to offer. Normally I would not take the time to write a review of someone but I was just so impressed with Monica that I wanted to do so.”
Design Loft Company
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 1, 2012
“We hired Hellen Hsieh, the owner of Design Loft Company, to design our 725 sq ft great room addition. We are so incredibly thrilled with the completed project, it is exactly what we had envisioned. Our existing house was a 1200 sq ft 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. The kitchen and living area was very modest. With two teenagers at home, we needed to expand and wanted more room to entertain. When we started the project we were uncertain if we should knock down walls and remodel the current floor plan and add a small addition or keep the footprint of the existing house exactly the same and add on one large great room. We decided to do the later, however, to get to this point, we went through several different renderings. Hellen provided us with many great options and helped us decide what would be the most economical and feasible plan. She was flexible, patient and was great about pointing out the pros and cons of each option. Her interactions with our architect , contractor and cabinet supplier went very smoothly which helped us to meet specific deadlines. Hellen was maticulous when it came to the kitchen cabinets and made sure everything was ordered properly and our custom stain came out exactly how we wanted. As a designer, she is very creative and knowledgeable. She understood the style and feel we were after. More importantly she was very conscious and respectful of our monetary constraints which helped us complete our entire project within budget. What impressed us most was her understanding of the build process: from the contractors needs, the city requirements, realistic costs and time estimates, appliance installation prerequisites and inspection requirements. We couldn't be more pleased with Design Loft and Hellen's professionalism.”

Enotive LLC
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 27, 2018
“Enotive helped us transform our 70s kitchen into an open and airy floor plan. We weren't sure what the best layout for our kitchen, dining, family room space and didn't want to just blindly jump into remodeling without being able to see the area planned out ahead of time. We worked with Jennifer on the project, and she listened to what we wanted in the space and kept our budget in mind. The 3D rendering helped us play with the design and see what we were getting before making any changes. We ended up with a beautifully updated kitchen, very open and bright floor plan. Our favorite element was removing the smaller kitchen window and patio slider to create a large slider that can open up the entire wall. I highly recommend getting Enotive to help you with the design and planning element.”
Laurie Ghielmetti
Color Consulting Companies in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 24, 2015
“Laurie Ghielmetti has not only taught me piano (in her earlier life), but has been my interior designer for many years! She has worked with me in a number of homes, and has been terrific across the board. She has a very wide knowledge of a range of designs and knows just where to get things, who provides the best guarantees and service, and then she stands by to make sure everyone comes as and when expected and and is satisfactory to me in my home and in use. She's also a wonderful person to spend time with. And, by the way, her long time sidekick Kelley Matusiak is also terrific!”

Interior Designer or Decorator FAQs
The duration of a color consultation project can vary depending on the scope. A single-room project might take a few hours of consultation plus additional time for follow-ups and adjustments. More comprehensive projects, such as whole-home color schemes or exterior color planning, could take several days of consultation. The implementation time, which includes painting and decorating, will depend on the size of the project and the availability of the homeowners and contractors.
Color Consultants stay abreast of the latest design trends and material innovations through continuous education and industry engagement. They incorporate this knowledge into their recommendations, ensuring that your space not only looks contemporary but also utilizes materials that are durable and eco-friendly. They can suggest paints with low VOC levels, sustainable wallpapers, and finishes that are both trendy and timeless, ensuring your space remains relevant and beautiful for years to come.
Before meeting with a Color Consultant, homeowners should collect inspiration images, consider the function and mood of each space, and identify any items (furniture, art, etc.) that must be incorporated into the design. Creating a list of likes and dislikes in terms of colors and styles can also be helpful. Ensuring the space is accessible and clean for the consultation will facilitate a smooth process.
Common challenges, such as disagreements between homeowners or difficulties in visualizing the final outcome, are addressed through clear communication, 3D renderings, and samples. Consultants typically have strategies, such as mood boards and color psychology, to navigate differing opinions and help clients visualize the impact of color choices. Their expertise can guide clients toward satisfying decisions that meet the needs and preferences of all parties involved.
Yes, there are several industry certifications available for Color Consultants. Certifications such as the Certified Color Expert (CCE) and the International Association of Color Consultants (IACC) designation demonstrate a consultantʼs commitment to their craft, ensuring they have undergone rigorous training in color theory, psychology, and application. When searching for a Color Consulting Company, checking for these certifications can provide an added layer of assurance in their expertise.
A clear and open dialogue about budget constraints is crucial from the start. A reputable Color Consultant will discuss costs upfront and strive to work within your budget, offering alternatives and suggestions to achieve your desired outcome without compromising quality. They can prioritize project elements to tackle immediate needs while planning future updates, ensuring financial resources are utilized effectively. Always ask for a detailed estimate that includes all expected costs to avoid surprises.
