Cohen-Stuart Victor

We hired Victor to help us choose colors for the interior and exterior of our house a few years ago. I was hesitant because we aren’t the «splurge» types, and having a color specialist seemed extravagant. After working with Victor I was sold on having expert color advice. The cost of having professional help in choosing colors was mitigated by not having to shell out money for «color-​test quarts». I loved his idea of describing how we feel or want to feel in a room, it is really how I think about color, so I still feel good about our choices. Lets face it during a remodel, you are completely exhausted and overwhelmed by the time you have to pick colors– best to leave it to the experts.

The three most beautifully painted houses in the neighborhood — ours and two others — are all Victor Cohen Stuart’s work. He is efficient, a clear communicator, delightful and a master at assessing what will work with your home, roof, surroundings, neighbors and neighborhood. We highly recommend him.

Victor is fabulous

Victor is the best Color consultant! I hired two other color consultants to help choose the colors of my house, and while they were fine, I didn’t like either of their choices. The painters came to strip the house, and I didn’t know what colors to paint the house. Then I saw a house in the neighborhood that I loved, so I knocked on their door and they gave me Victor’s contact information. They said everyone they had referred Victor to was happy.
I had a difficult house because it’s a tudor with a ugly roof. The roof is what you see mostly, so Victor had to find colors that would work with the roof without making it more noticeable. He came out and found colors. My husband decided they were too dark, so he came back and showed my husband that they weren’t. (This was part of the fee).
He’s been artist, an art professor and a house painter. So he understands colors and he understands house paints. I think he’s brilliant!
While I still don’t love the roof of our house, I find my eyes relaxing when I come home, it’s quite a treat! My eyes are much too picky, and don’t relax at much.
I am not sure if he wants a Unilocal review, but you can find his contact information if you do a google search.
