Colors are factory-mixed for bulk orders or could be mixed in the Boysen Mix and Match Stations which are usually found in home depots. Another way to come up with a color, especially one which you would like to be unique to yourself, would be to do your own mixing of paint and colorants. We also have tutorials on how to do that.

The color palettes are informed from the different trends seen in the world today on the socio-political, economic, and cultural fronts. First these are identified and analyzed, then colors are brought into discussion for each color palette. The result for each palette are 6 well-curated colors that combine very well with each other. Using 2 or 3 of these colors in any combination can create different atmospheres in your home.
Start with finding the color palette that appeals most to you. Then choose your colors individually, as well as the combination.
