MATERIAL FINISH DEVELOPMENT

Develop a finish that does not exist yet.

Start with a reference image, sample, colour, texture or design idea. We can help turn that direction into a practical finish for the selected substrate.

DEVELOPMENT

A colour name is not always enough.

Two surfaces can use the same nominal colour and still look different because of substrate, primer colour, sheen, texture, transparency and lighting. For design-led work, the finish should be considered as a combination rather than a paint code alone.

We can work from moodboards, physical samples, reference materials, photographs and adjacent materials to develop a direction, then create approval samples before final application.

FINISH VARIABLES

Variables we can develop.

Colour

Standard references, physical matching and bespoke mixed directions.

Sheen

Matt, satin, gloss and high-gloss direction adjusted to the design intent.

Texture

Smooth, structured or intentionally tactile surface direction where the coating system allows.

Metallic & effects

Selected metallic, layered and detailed decorative effects developed around the substrate and brief.

Custom finish development: reference and brief, substrate review, colour texture and sheen, sample and adjust, approve and apply
