About
A refined eye.
A considered process.
chromist (ˈkrō-mist) n. A specialist in the art and science of color. One who reads light, surface, and context to determine how color will truly behave. Derived from the Greek chroma, meaning color, hue, and the richness of the visual world.
That's what we are, and it's what we bring to every home we work on. A trained eye, a calm and intentional process, and years of visual expertise, blended with modern visualization techniques to give you clarity during what is often an overwhelming decision.
Our goal is simple: help you make confident, informed choices about your home's most visible update.
FAQ
Common questions, answered.
Our renderings are made by humans to make sure that what is rendered is your home without any modifications, besides paint color. We hand select each segment of the home to cleanly, and accurately apply color. We show more than just a base color. Our Signature and Color Preview packages show trim, shutters, and door colors along with siding. And most importantly we don't approximate colors, we color match paints from today's top brands.
