Become a Colour Consultant

Although colour consultancy is only now becoming established as a field of formal education, it is still important that you gain an in-depth knowledge of colour, and how it affects us, as the first step towards becoming a colour consultant.

If you would like to become a professional colour consultant, you will need to be educated in areas such as the following:

• How certain colours affect our perception of space and distance
• Understanding the colour wheel
• Colour psychology
• Practical applications for specific colours
• Colour notation for distinguishing hue, tone and chroma
• How to use mood and concept boards to develop a colour scheme
• How to present a colour scheme to a client

There are now affordable courses in colour consultancy available from specialist educational institutions.
