The palette studio
The house deck, minus the wobbly stool.
Twelve colors we mix, trust, and will defend at a dinner party. Tap up to three to build a palette — every chip carries its code, its LRV, and one honest line of pairing advice.
Your palette
Empty — like the wall before we start. Tap any chip on the wall to begin.

How we read light
The consultation isn't a color book open on your counter — it's ninety minutes of this:
North light is a color
A north-facing room eats warmth. Whites go gray, grays go blue. We choose colors that get better in that light, not ones that need the afternoon to apologize.
LRV is the number that matters
Light Reflectance Value — how much light a color throws back, 0 to 100. The gap between your walls and your ceiling is a design decision, and it's measurable.
Undertone is where regret lives
Two grays can agree under noon sun and divorce by lamplight. We test oversized chips on your actual walls, at your actual hours, before a single gallon is mixed.
