Espresso and Fawn

Deciding on the right ceiling colors is crucial. The wrong color can make anyone who comes into the office feel unwelcome, uncomfortable or even squelched. It's color psychology.

The first step is picking the right paint company. Mike the Contractor struck a deal with Portland's MetroPaint, a company that collects leftover latex paint, recycles it into 15 beautiful colors and sells it to environmentally-conscious nonprofits at a discount.

The next step was to eliminate 13 of those recycled colors. Each color was considered with implications for atmosphere and mood, but in the end the Move Over team decided that nothing says "Jesus loves you" like Espresso and Fawn. What do you think?

The ceilings (and wall mural) were done by Ryan Taft and his Taft Painting crew.

What's next? Supplies are due in tomorrow to start getting the walls framed and the sheetrock up. Then it will really start looking like an office.
