About Interior Tailor
Interior Tailor is a practical online resource for people planning painting and home improvement projects.
Our goal is simple: make common painting calculations and color planning easier to understand and easier to perform.
Painting a room often starts with a few basic questions: How much paint do I need? How much of the wall area will actually be painted? How will a particular color look in a room?
Interior Tailor brings these tasks together in one place for homeowners, renters and DIY enthusiasts.
Our calculators and color tools
Our paint calculator estimates paint quantity using dimensions, openings, coats, coverage and waste allowance. We also offer material calculators for other home projects. Our Color Mixing Lab explores estimated digital recipes, and our Room Color Visualizer helps you explore color ideas before buying samples.
Our paint color guides
The Interior Tailor blog explains paint undertones, lighting, finishes and sampling through guides to gray, green, beige and living room colors. Our landscaping guides explain gravel quantities, material choices and practical calculator use. Articles are published under the Interior Tailor name, with visible publication dates and links to relevant manufacturer resources. Descriptions of color are starting points for comparison, rather than promises about how paint will look in every home.
How to use our advice
Article illustrations show general color inspiration, not calibrated manufacturer swatches or photographs of completed projects. We do not claim to have tested every paint mentioned. Confirm color codes, reflectance values, availability and application instructions with the manufacturer, and test physical samples beside the finishes you are keeping.
Our guides currently contain no affiliate links. If that changes, relevant commercial relationships will be disclosed on the affected pages.
Important information about estimates
Our tools and articles provide general planning information. Actual quantities and color appearance vary with the product, surface, texture, light, coverage and application method. Structural, electrical and other specialist work needs project-specific advice from a qualified professional.
