Simply A New Wall Color? (House-coaching)

8/30/2018

 
Many people feel their house is imperfect and hiring a designer to come in and find those “imperfections” is a big step, and one I don’t take lightly. I honor my client’s privacy so the photos you see below have a filter applied to intentionally blur the details.  The reason I am sharing this with you is to explain why my House-coaching skills are needed in this particular situation.
​

I was called to this house for a color consultation in the master bedroom. My client recently removed the wallpaper border and just wanted to freshen things up with a new wall color.

From a designer’s perspective, I suggested the following to my client:

  • Downsize to a queen size bed in order for the nightstands to be positioned correctly (they are currently turned sideways)
  • Add a second lamp for visual balance and better lighting
  • ​Downsize the contents of the closet to accommodate the extra clothing currently hanging behind the bedroom door
  • We selected a paint color that will coordinate with her existing furniture and bed linens

From a House-coaching perspective, I explained the following to my client:
​
  • She has an “obstacle course” that she has to navigate every day to get to the important items stored inside the drawers of the nightstand
  • ​The bed is a connection to a difficult period earlier in her life
  • With the placement of the mirror opposite her bed, the first and last thing she sees every day is a reflection of negative energy (the bed)
  • ​The television is not helping to create the love life she desires
  • She is sleeping on seriously negative energy every night. The bed is negative energy and beneath the bed is where she stores clothing items that no longer fit her, filling her with guilt and shame for not being able to wear them.

My client simply wanted a new paint color when she first called me but now we are working together to turn her bedroom into a soul oasis; a room that fills her with hope and reflects the life she is excited to live. Look around your bedroom and see if it reflects the life of your dreams.
