‘I was completely overwhelmed by colour choices but working with Amie changed everything.'

We offer two consultation options, designed to fit your project:

Project Colour Direction

$795 | Available in-person or virtually

Complete colour direction for new builds and major renovations — ideal when colour decisions span multiple materials and finishes across the home. A considered scheme that brings the whole palette together. 

What’s included:

  • An extended consultation to review plans, materials and overall design direction. 

  • Integrated colour guidance across paint, roofing, cladding, flooring, cabinetry and other finishes. 

  • Brushout and material sampling so you can experience the colours alongside material selections.

  • Comprehensive colour specification outlining how the palette is applied across the project.

  • Clear direction to move forward with confidence as selections are finalised.

In-Home Colour Consultation

$395 | Available in-person or virtually

A tailored, expert-led consultation to create a confident, considered colour scheme designed specifically for your home.

What’s included:

  • A 90-minute consultation where we’ll discuss mood, lighting, existing finishes, how you use the space and more.

  • A custom interior or exterior paint colour scheme.

  • A paint specification outlining exactly which colour goes where.

  • Brushout samples so you can review each colour in your space.

  • Clear, practical direction to brief your painter and move forward with clarity.

Not sure which option fits? Here’s the simplest way to choose:

  • In-Home Colour Consultation → Best for homes where the focus is selecting paint colour. Ideal for repainting or refreshing interiors where the existing finishes remain in place. Includes a 90 minute consultation, brushout sampling and a detailed colour specification.

  • Project Colour Direction → Best for new builds or major renovations where colour decisions span multiple materials. Ideal when cladding, joinery, flooring and paint need to work together to create a cohesive palette. Includes an extended consultation, review of plans and materials, integrated interior and exterior colour direction, sampling and a detailed colour specification.

  • Outside Auckland? Both services are available virtually, so you won’t miss out on expert guidance.

Your questions answered

  • A colour consultation helps you cut through the overwhelm of endless paint samples. We assess your space(s), light, existing finishes and the mood you want to create, then deliver a clear, cohesive paint schedule so you can move from indecision to confidence.

  • A colour consultation is a 90-minute session (either in person or virtual) creating a full paint colour scheme followed by paint schedules and samples.

    A Project Colour Direction focuses on more than just paint it considers how colour moves through the entire home. Bringing clarity to those early decisions like roofing, cladding, flooring that are made well before paint is applied.

  • No. We’re completely independent and brand-agnostic, meaning we work across all major paint brands in New Zealand to find the best fit for your project.

  • Absolutely. We create cohesive interior and exterior schemes so your home feels consistent and considered from the inside out.

  • We work with clients across New Zealand and abroad. Both of our consultation can be done virtually, giving you the same tailored, expert guidance and full paint specification as an in-person session.

    We also travel for in-person consultations from time to time. If you’d prefer us onsite, just let us know and we’ll share upcoming availability.

Led by colour specialist Amie White, Pigment brings deep expertise in colour strategy and design direction. With hundreds of in-home and virtual consultations behind her, Amie guides colour decisions across homes, brands and design teams alike - combining independence, experience and a passion for making colour simple.

Pigment was founded to bridge the gap between full service interior design and the limited advice available in retail paint stores. We saw homeowners overwhelmed by choice, painters slowed down by client indecision and designers who wanted to push colour further but didn’t have the time or tools to do so.

  • "I was completely overwhelmed by the colour choices for my first home renovation, but working with Amie changed everything. She was a brilliant listener who truly understood my vision for a relaxing space. Her recommendations were so helpful and made me see my home in a new light. I love every single room, and I couldn't be happier with the results”

    Melissa, Browns Bay

  • "We had a sense of what we wanted but not the confidence to get there. Left to our own devices we probably would’ve defaulted to white, listened to everyone else and played it safe.”

    Matt, Grey Lynn

  • "Nobody wants to get a colour on the wall and then be disappointed or worse still requesting for it to be changed. Amie really listens to your brief and gives you a range of options to choose from. She encourages you to be brave and look at colours that you may not have initially selected yourself. This brings you a result that is so exciting!"

    Kirsten, Epsom

  • "I feel you’ve answered my brief perfectly, and I truly appreciate the thought and care you’ve put into it."

    Thomas, Architect | Auckland

  • "Thanks so much for this, it is so helpful and detailed and hugely appreciated. Looking forward to the brushouts arriving. More people should know about Pigment, it is really excellent! I will recommend you to anyone I know grappling with paint decisions."

    Anna, St Heliers
