§ 02 Details · The seven we draw into every room Speak with a designer →

§ 04 Paint · Six houses we keep on the desk Pick a color →

The color rolodex inside the planner. Six houses — three American, two from Europe, one from Australia — chosen because their pigments hold, their swatches read true under a wall lamp, and their formulas have not changed in twenty years. Hex values approximate the published swatch; the exact match is made on the wall.

White Dove, Revere Pewter, Hale Navy, Kittery Point Green — the anchor library.
F&B · United Kingdom

Farrow & Ball.

Pigeon, Down Pipe, Hague Blue, Studio Green — the European deck.
Portola · Los Angeles

Portola Paints.

Roman clay and lime wash from the LA studio — for plaster walls and quiet rooms.
S-W · United States

Alabaster, Urbane Bronze, Tricorn Black — the working deck for trim and millwork.
DKC · New York

Donald Kaufman.

Hand-mixed archival color from the New York studio — what we reach for last.
Bauwerk · Belgium

Bauwerk Color.

Lime paint with a chalky hand — used inside cabinetry for interiors with depth.
A note on accuracy

No screen ever matches a brushed-out sample — the swatches above are indicative only. Every project carries a wall-brushed sample reviewed in your light before any spray gun is opened in the shop.

§ 05 Tier · How the catalog is priced What it costs →

Every specimen in the library carries a tier — Mid, High or Superior. The tier sets the multiplier on the carcase price; the room itself is always custom. Most projects mix tiers across the same drawing.

Tier · Mid
× 1.00

The everyday ground.

European oak, hard maple, ash, hand-rubbed oil, cerused finish, honed travertine, brushed nickel, wool felt, clear glass. The pieces that quietly do the work.
Tier · High
× 1.40

Where the room shifts.

Walnut, fumed oak, tamo ash, anigre, hand-applied lacquer, soap-finish, Verde Alpi, Pietra Serena, blackened steel, saddle leather, Belgian linen, fluted glass, antiqued mirror.
Tier · Superior
× 1.90

The signed piece.

Claro walnut, reclaimed heart pine, Macassar ebony, eucalyptus burl, specialist hand lacquer, Calacatta marble, hand-patinated bronze — selected board by board, signed by the maker.
