LandVest can harness a fantastic team of experts to increase the marketability of your property.
One such expert is Kimberly Collins Jermain, an architectural color designer who uses a mix of science, intuition and brilliant interpersonal skills to help her clients use color to make their houses more comfortable, visually pleasing and salable.
This month, in a training session for LandVest’s brokers, she explained how her fundamental principles of color can help make a house look great:
“Color is the most powerful visual cue. When used in a strategy to shape a home’s architecture for light, comfort and design, it can significantly impact the homeowner and potential buyer’s satisfaction and confidence in the purchase.”
From White to Warm |

White can be great, or not. |
“A custom tailored exterior palate will accentuate your home’s architecture as well as the site’s best features. The front facade can be painted to re-awaken its former elegance or a barn given new prominence in the landscape.”
From Dreary to Bright |

Here, white makes for a more sculptured form and an elegant Nantucket/Edgartown look. |
“No color theory technique is more impactful than camouflage. Get rid of awkward design elements and utility features by allowing them to melt into the background.”
