When I was a new designer and I had to choose a sofa for a client, I would show up with my binder full of every sofa style available.
Then as I gained more experience, I realized that doing that made me look like I had no idea which sofa was the right one. And looking back, I mostly didn’t. I was hoping my client would choose to take me off the hook.
It works the same with paint colours.
If you hire a designer or colour consultant and you are left with 10 (or more than 2) different shades of neutrals or colours to test for one room or one exterior?
Well, she (or he) doesn’t know which one is right either.
