Tara Biller

Our very talented designer Tara Biller has received an awesome review and we wanted to share it with you guys!

To whom it may concern,
I purchased a two hour interior redesign/consultation from Transformed Interior Design and was very impresses.  Tara Biller was excellent!  My primary need was positioning of artwork around my house to make sure it was properly placed and flowed through out the house.  She did a great job, and even hung them all for me!  But she did not stop there!  She went above and beyond giving me ideas for paint colors for our dining room, furniture ideas (we need a new couch for our family room) and great ideas for her future visit.  Once I complete my homework, I am looking forward having Tara come back to continue to the transformation!
Thanks Tara, for your attention to detail, bubble personality and vision that I only wish I had!

A Happy Customer,

Kelly

23 Expert Tips Continued

Continuing with our previous post, here are the rest of the expert tips for choosing and using livable colors!

-When choosing wall colors, find versions of your favorite colors that are muted with gray.

-Choose the best paint you can afford. Good paint has better pigments and a more livable finish.

-Look at paint colors in the morning and at night, and put them near your furniture.

-For a cohesive look, flow two or three of the same colors in each room. An accent wall in the family room is reflected in the master bedroom bedding, for example.

-Choose colors based on the use of a room. Morning rooms can be brighter; Rooms used at night can go dark.

-You can take just about anything to the paint store and ask the associate to mix a paint that's a perfect matching using the store's color reader.

- Give yourself permission to use a bold color. You don't have to love it everywhere-one throw or pillow might be just enough.

-Colors close together on the color wheel are analogous and will make a calm room. Colors that are farther apart are complementary and add drama.

-Play with intensity. I love monochromatic rooms that use a single hue in a variety of ways.

-Your home is made up of more than walls-ceilings, floors, stairs, and doors are also great places to have fun with paint.

-When rooms open to one another, avoid choosing radically different colors, or the space will look choppy and small.
