Let’s discover your color comfort zone.

My name is Maggie Ventura, and I’m here to help you coordinate your perfect paint colors.

I’ve always pursued my passion for art, which ultimately led me to specialize in consulting on house paint colors. Since 2017, I’ve helped homeowners coordinate the best color options for them on both interior and exterior projects. My mission is to discover paint colors that help my clients feel their best in their homes.

I’ve developed a process for helping my clients identify their unique color comfort zone. I combine the use of color theory, house paint knowledge, asking the right questions, and reading verbal and nonverbal cues to guide others towards the right colors for them. I believe that the right paint colors help people feel better by creating a sense of comfort and connection throughout the home.

  • “I would highly recommend Maggie to anyone needing an expert eye to help them determine paint color and color combinations. It's her superpower!”

    Our experience working with Maggie to determine a new color scheme for the windows and trim of our brick home was an exceptional one. Maggie is truly seasoned and knew how to quickly center in on which general direction we wanted to go through quickly showing us color swatches, and she then got super specific with color choices without confusing us--I'd liken her process to going to the eye doctor and trying two different lenses to identify which one "fits" better. I would highly recommend Maggie to anyone needing an expert eye to help them determine paint color and color combinations. It's her superpower!

  • “I highly recommend Maggie for anyone looking for a color expert to make sure you pick the right options before investing a bunch of money on painting!”

    Maggie was able to play off what I liked and definitely didn’t like and help me feel very confident in my color selection. We picked a really nice palette that flowed throughout the house. She explained everything in detail, was on time, answered all my questions and had a great referral process, which led me to get quotes from several local painting companies. After 7 years, I finally had the colors picked and a great local painting company to execute the job. I’m so pleased with how it turned out! I highly recommend Maggie for anyone looking for a color expert to make sure you pick the right options before investing a bunch of money on painting!

She listened well and rather than just tell us what to choose, was able to interpret my goals/ideas/reactions to get us to the right answer. The house turned out great! She also was very responsive and quickly answered frantic texts about gutter color selection. Would definitely work with Maggie again.

    Maggie was amazing to work with. I had some colors in mind, and wanted to make sure they all complemented one another. She took the time to understand what I was trying to do, and did a great job asking questions that clarified areas of uncertainty.

  • ”What would have taken me hours and countless trips to the paint store for samples took about an hour.”

    Maggie helped me pick paint colors out for our basement remodeling project. What would have taken me hours and countless trips to the paint store for samples took about an hour. She listened to what I was thinking for a color scheme and quickly focused in on a few colors for me to choose from. We quickly selected colors for the main room and accent wall, bathroom and office. She also helped me pick colors for a future update to our kitchen. I highly recommend her if you struggle like I do with paint selection.
