What does a color consultant do?

The duties of a color consultant are to give clients expert advice on how to match elements of an interior or exterior design scheme using color theory and a creative eye for detail. They apply their skills and superior knowledge of color palette, trends, and design to produce visual effects that meet the needs of their clients. A color consultant does this by working with a variety of elements within a space, ranging from fabrics and furniture to paint swatches. Career qualifications often include a bachelor’s degree in interior design or a similar field.
