Color Doctor on Call for Historic Home Color Consultations

Exterior and interior paint colors are the crowning touch of a historic home renovation that reveals the distinctive character of your property. Just as Old House Authority can guide you in making those all-important often irreversible renovations, repair and design decisions, we can also help you with an appropriate color design. The Color Doctor, John Crosby Freeman, a national-recognized architectural color consultant, is exclusively on call for Old House Authority.

Your personal Color Doctor will:

• Discuss the architectural logic of your house and opportunities for the placement of contrasting colors to maximize its beauty
• Explore your personal color likes and dislikes
• Suggest handsome colors and their appropriate placements in accordance your personal color preferences
• Write a prescription for colors and placements for your painting contractor

John Crosby Freeman has been featured in Country Home, Renovation Style, Old-House Journal, Traditional Building and Old-House Interiors. Nearly 20 years ago, he developed the Southern Heritage color cards for Valspar at Lowe’s, which evolved into the American Tradition palette. The Color Doctor, who has written thousands of successful prescriptions for architectural colors, is available to write one for your residential or commercial property via email or a consultation on-site.
