If you’ve got paint swatches all over the house and still don’t know what’s actually going to work, come join us on Saturday The Village

A couple of places are still available.

You can book either workshop on its own, or come to both if you want the framework first, then help applying it directly to your project. Either way, you’ll leave with a clear direction forward not more options to second guess.

Paint colour is one of those decisions that’s easy to overthink — endless swatches, plenty of opinions, and a lot riding on getting it right.

A Colour Consultation cuts through that, so you leave with a scheme you’re happy to commit to, not just one you’ve (finally!) settled on.

We consider your home as a whole, natural light, fixed finishes, adjoining spaces, how you use each space and most importantly the way you want it to feel.

A 90-minute consultation covers up to four spaces and includes a custom interior/exterior paint colour scheme, brushout samples and a detailed colour specification showing exactly which colour goes where.

Best suited to repainting or refreshing a home where the existing finishes are staying in place.

Available in-home in Auckland or virtually throughout New Zealand. Pigment works independently across all major paint brands, so the recommendation starts with the right colour for your home, not a particular range.

Project Colour Direction is Pigment’s service for projects with multiple, interconnecting colour decisions, helping everything come together from the outset.

We look at the wider palette across your spaces — cladding, joinery, flooring, roofing, tiles, fixed finishes and paint — so each selection is made with the full picture in mind, not on its own.

The process includes a review of your design direction and material colour selections, an extended consultation of up to 2.5 hours, integrated interior and/or exterior colour direction, brushout and material sampling, and a detailed paint specification showing exactly which colour goes where.

Best suited to projects where the overall palette needs to feel resolved from the begining, whether you’re managing things yourself or working with an architect or designer.

Available in home or virtually

Pigment’s small-group workshops are designed for homeowners and professionals looking for practical, design-led guidance to build confidence with colour.

Led by Pigment’s Colour Specialist Amie White, each workshop is intentionally hands-on rather than theoretical. You’ll learn how colour behaves in real spaces, how light and materials affect what you see, and how to make more confident decisions for your own home or project.

They’re a great place to start if you’re unsure where to begin, or to refine your eye and build the skills to make more considered colour selections yourself.

Numbers are kept small. Current workshops can be found on the Pigment website.

This morning I attended the release of the 2027 Dulux Colour Forecast and as someone who works with colour every day, it’s exactly the type of event I look forward to.

The final palettes are always exciting but what I find most interesting is hearing about the journey, the 12 months prior to release. The research, the stories, the travel, the process of distilling international trends into something that actually makes sense for how we live here.

Trends can feel bold or out of reach in theory. These three palettes are different. They’re considered in a way that translates to NZ homes and NZ life.

Would love to know what you think when they’re released later this month.

Lots of our clients struggle with bedrooms that feel too dark. Seeking a space of serenity, the obvious approach is painting it lighter or in a very soft blue or green.

In reality, most light colours end up looking flat and washed out. Instead, ask yourself: when do you actually use the room? If it’s at night, to relax and unwind before sleep, you’re probably not after a light, bright space.

Embrace the lack of natural light. Step the colour up one or two shades darker than you’d instinctively reach for. It’s the depth and a stronger undertone that create the sense of serenity — not the paleness. Earthy tones work just as beautifully as your traditional blues and greens.

Choosing paint colour isn’t just about finding a colour you like.

When I’m working on a home, I’m looking at how the light behaves, the undertones within exisiting materials, the way spaces connect and the overall feeling the clients want to create.

It’s the relationship between these elements that determine whether a scheme feels cohesive or slightly off.

It’s the part of the process clients don’t always see but it’s very much where the thinking happens.

Save this for when you’re ready to start choosing colours.

Frame your whole room by painting your skirting boards, door frames and doors in a deeper colour.

Traditionally trims are kept the same as the walls or white for a stronger contrast but a neutral wall with a brighter hue can look really striking. Or go the other way with an organic neutral trim for an earthy, grounded feel.

It’s a perfect approach if you’ve moved into a home and don’t want a full repaint but a freshen up that makes the space feel like yours. And if you’ve got paint left over from another room, this is a great way to use it intentionally.

The funny thing about being a colour specialist is that clients get in touch when things feel hardest. Mid-renovation, when decisions are stacking up, when nothing is quite landing.

By the time it all comes together, they’ve moved on. Which means this is usually what I’m working with.

Every now and then I’d love to see the after. So if your project is finished and looking as you hoped, tag us a photo 📸
