The Paint Color Wheel

A color wheel will help you to figure out which colors will mix harmoniously, fit better for your exterior home painting, for example, and what combination to avoid. Similarly, a color palette will ease your interior painting decision, based on the same principle.

The primary colors: red, blue and yellow are combined (in sets of two) to make three secondary colors.For example, red and yellow produce an orange; yellow and blue result in a green; red and blue combine to make a purple.

Tertiary colors are a result of mixing a primary color with a secondary color.

An interior design tool, a color wheel, shows a number of colors in a circle. The colors close to each other complement themselves well, while the opposites are great for creating contrasts.

There are two types of colors: warm and cool. Warm colors are reds, oranges, yellows and browns. Cool colors are greens, blues and purples.

Warm colors will make the room feel cozy and inviting, as well as absorbing more heat.

Cool ones will make a room look bigger and brighter, especially if you are choosing a lighter shade. Additionally, they will help you relax and focus (think blue and green).

Shades of white are giving you a sense of space, creating a good atmosphere to Zen-styled homes.

Jolanta Friedman

"Like most people who live in old houses, we are repeatedly repairing, renovating and house remodeling ... Although we have used several contractors in the past, Marek Witecki is by far the best!
We have for many years entrusted all of our renovation work to him (and his company). Marek’s work is first rate, and it is a pleasure to work with him because he is completely fair, honest, hard-working, reliable and respectful of our needs and time lines.
He and his crew at The Best Western Contracting Ltd. have worked on all parts of our house, and many projects of house remodeling. He rebuilt our large deck, renovated our dining room, completely redesigned and rebuilt our master bedroom, replaced two bathrooms, built a basement laundry room/workshop and created a new entryway into our basement from the back yard.
We appreciate the way he understands what we want and brings our ideas to reality. He also offers very useful and inventive ideas that we ourselves have not considered. For example, his suggestion to remove a wall in our master bedroom suite created an open, airy space that is not only a great pleasure to be in, but is also more functional than we could have imagined.
Marek has a thorough knowledge of current products and construction methods. He has high standards and his workmanship is excellent. We have always found his cost estimates to be realistic, and he works hard to finish jobs within an agreed upon time schedule.
Marek has always exceeded our expectations, and we can recommend him to prospective clients without reservation!"
