About Urban Colour

Colour can make a dramatic difference to any home.  It is the easiest way to introduce character and personality as well as adding value.  The perfect colour scheme sets the mood and can alter the way we feel.  Soft hues can be applied to create a harmonious and tranquil environment, bolder contrasting colours can be used to build vibrant energy.

With over 10 years’ experience in colour consulting you can trust Urban Colour to create a unique and personalised colour scheme that is tailored to you, your property, and your lifestyle.  Specialising in interior and exterior selections for residential repaints, renovations and new builds we carefully assess every element of the space while putting your thoughts and ideas at the forefront of every decision. 

Traditionally, most of our work is residential with a focus on our expertise in paint finishes.  We can also provide advice on a wide range of other finishes from wallpaper, tiles, benchtops, to flooring and carpets to ensure a cohesive scheme flows through your home.

If you are looking for a fresh coat of paint we can help you choose beautiful colours to tie in with your existing fixtures and features, furniture and artwork.  If you need a scheme that will also perform when you come to sell your home, we can do that too.

Selecting colours can be stressful and time-consuming.  Some customers feel overwhelmed by endless possibilities and are looking for the inspiration and confidence to try something new, or maybe are just unsure where to start.  We will give you all the inspiration and advice you need with a focus on achieving a result that reflects you, your property and your lifestyle.

Jan Searle

Jan was born in England and has always had a real passion for colour and styling. She spent many years decorating her own homes and helping friends and family.

After Jan and her family moved to Australia she completed a Creative Visual Arts Diploma in Colour Design which supported her natural talent and enabled her to become a paint colour expert for a boutique paint company.

She still works in the paint industry and creates bespoke colours for her customers. She keeps up to date with the latest trends and technologies and works alongside architects and interior designers to recommend the right paint and wallpaper solution for their clients.

She created Urban Colour in 2011 when she identified a need for a personal consultancy service and as a colour advocate she has been fortunate to work with many residential clients and developers where she uses her knowledge and experience to create beautiful and desirable colour schemes.

Testimonials

Thank you for all your help with the colour selection, its such an overwhelming experience and you made it such an enjoyable experience and you knew exactly what colours I wanted before I did. I really appreciate all your help and effort and my home looks so beautiful because of you. Thank you!

Brooke - Riverview NSW

Jan recently helped with our interior colour scheme in our Queenslander and I can't recommend her enough.  Whilst Jan respected the brief, she didn't just tell me what she thought I wanted to hear, but instead guided me outside of my comfort zone to explore colours that truly do justice to the features of our home - colours that I would never have chosen myself!!  Thank you Jan - our house is coming together beautifully thanks to your very talented eye.

Bec - Ascot QLD

After spending weeks looking at colour charts and not really knowing which way to go, I phoned Jan to ask for some help. She arrived and really understood the challenges of our dark big room downstairs. We had a ball being able to finish the house colours within the timeframe arranged.
The colours that we chose are just so wonderful and very clever, with the best part being that I no longer need to be evaluating different colours as it’s all done. It’s out of my head now and a huge relief. We can’t wait to get started.

Polly - Everton Hills QLD

Jan was great to work with and helped us tweak the colour scheme we liked to make it all come together beautifully. She also came out to help us pick the colour of additional outdoor panels and gates that we added to the renovation at a later date. Even if you think you have a fairly good idea of what you want, having the help of an expert eye is really worth it and makes the whole process so much easier. I also love Porter’s Paints colours.

Pat - Ascot QLD

Jan really knows colour and I can’t thank her enough for creating our beautiful interior colour scheme. I was pretty overwhelmed by all the choices but Jan came along and simplified the process and made it really enjoyable. Her knowledge is amazing and she has a great ability to understand her clients needs and preferences. Jan also introduced me to colours I’d never considered but loved and ended up choosing because they really suited our Queenslander home. I love the colours Jan found for me and can’t wait to see them on our walls!

Az - Gordon Park QLD

Jan visited our apartment for a colour consultation recently & we were very impressed with her knowledge & expertise of colour choices for all areas of our home.
She took into account our style preferences & the light & shade in each room.
She also advised on wallpaper & fabric selections which we loved.
We highly recommend Jan for any project for the perfect colour choices.
