  • How to choose color for your own room

    • You've been meaning to add color for months, and the walls are still white
    • Which color, in which room, and how much of it
    • You ask three people and get three answers, so you postpone it again
    • You keep it safe, and the room still feels like a rental.

      You're not bad at this. Nobody ever taught you what to look at. Once you understand how color works in a room, your light, your direction, what's already in there, you stop asking everyone else what they think and start trusting yourself.


    What you'll learn:


    ✨ Where to start when you have no idea which color you want
    ✨ The 60-30-10 balance in plain language
    ✨ Which colors suit your room, and why yours is different from the one in the photo
    ✨ How to combine warm and cool tones without clashing
    ✨ How to pick an accent color, and where to use it
    ✨ Why the same paint looks like a different color at home than in the store


  • What's inside:


    34-page ebook · 13-page workbook · 1-page checklist


    1. The hidden power of color

    2. A short course in color theory

    3. Light, and why it changes everything

    4. What color can do to a room

    5. Common mistakes, and how to avoid them

    6. The 60-30-10 rule

    7. Exercise: build your palette


    This ebook is for you if you:


    ✨ Want more color at home but don't know where to start

    ✨ Are afraid of a choice you'll regret

    ✨ Keep going back and forth between swatches and combinations

    ✨ Want to understand why something works, so the next decision is yours

You don't need a design degree to choose color well. You need a way to think about it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I receive it?

It's a digital download. Right after checkout you get an email with three PDFs: the ebook, the workbook, and the checklist. They open on a phone, tablet, or computer, and they print well.

Can I use this if I rent?

Yes. Paint is only part of it. The guide shows you how to bring color into a room through furniture, textiles and decor as well, so you can build a palette that works whether or not you're allowed to touch the walls.

What if it's not for me?

Fair question, you can't flip through a digital book the way you would in a store. So I show you what's inside before you buy: real pages from the guide in the photos above, and the full chapter list further up this page. No mystery box.
And if you're stuck after reading, email me. I'm a real person (hi, I'm Helene), I read every message myself, and I'll point you to the part that will help your home most.

Do I need any design experience?

No. This was written for people decorating their own home, not for designers. Everything is explained in plain language with visual examples instead of jargon, and the workbook walks you through each step. If you can pick a favorite pillow, you can do this.

Never knew color could change the way a room actually feels in size. The tips on using lighter, darker, warm and cool shades made me look at my small living room completely differently. A few small changes made the space feel much more open without changing any furniture. So helpful!

Lilly

The biggest takeaway for me was learning to start with what’s already in my home. I kept saving paint colors I loved online without considering my flooring and furniture. Once I started looking at those first, choosing the rest became so much easier. Such a simple shift, but it completely changed how I approach decorating.

The section on color contrast was such a game changer. I always thought something was missing in my rooms, but I couldn’t figure out what. After applying a few of the examples from the guide, everything looked more balanced and finished without buying a bunch of new things. So many little “aha” moments in this one.

Olivia

I never realized the problem in my living room wasn’t the colors themselves, but how much of each one I was using. The 60-30-10 rule was such a lightbulb moment! I moved around a few things I already owned and the whole room suddenly made so much more sense. I love that this ebook teaches you how to actually use color, not just which colors look good together.

I bought both the color guide and the fall guide, and I’m so glad I got both. The color guide is a much deeper dive into how color actually works in your home, and the exercises, workbook and checklist made it really easy to put everything into practice. The fall guide is more seasonal and specific, with beautiful color palettes, decorating ideas and simple ways to make your home feel like fall. They complement each other so well, one teaches you the foundations, while the other shows you how to use them for the season

E
Emily

I finally figured out why certain colors always looked “off” in my home. The explanation of warm and cool tones was such an eye-opener. I’ve already stopped myself from buying a few things that would’ve been completely wrong for my space. So worth it!

S
Sophie

Wish I had this before repainting my living room twice! The section about lighting completely changed the way I pick colors. I never realized how different the same shade could look throughout the day. This e-book would have saved me so much time, money, and frustration.

Honestly one of the best purchases I’ve made this year. I learned so much about color and, more importantly, about what I actually want my home to feel like. After making just a few changes, everything feels warmer, more personal and so much more like me. For the first time, I really feel at home in my own space

Color seems so simple, and yet, there is a lot to consider. This beautifully illustrated guide makes it a pleasure to figure out, and is well worth the money.

I’ve seen so much interior design content online, but this is the first time it has truly stuck with me and something I could immediately put into practice. You finally understand why some colours work so well together while others don’t.

I always loved colorful interiors but had no idea how to actually combine colors without it looking messy. This guide made everything so clear. The step-by-step process and exercises helped me build a palette for my living room and it finally feels cohesive. I wish I had found this sooner!

Nina

This ebook is packed with useful information but still very easy to understand. I loved how practical it is. Instead of just inspiration, it actually teaches you how to think about color and build a palette that works in your home. My home finally feels balanced and intentional.

  • Hi, I'm Helene

    I'm an interior and graphic designer, and the person behind Studio Azurro.

    Nine years in the field, from an architecture firm to working behind the scenes on a Dutch primetime home makeover show. In all those years I learned one thing: a home shouldn't just look beautiful, it should feel like you.

    That's what these guides are for. No rigid rules and no design degree required, just the reasoning behind the choices, so you can make them yourself. The way I'd explain it if I were standing in your living room.

    Whether you've just moved, are moving in together, or are simply ready for a change: this is where you start.
