designer handbook

A complete coastal palette handbook for creating a beautifully cohesive home — not just a list of paint colors.

This designer-created guide walks you through how to build a timeless, coordinated color palette with confidence. Inside, you’ll discover exactly which colors work together, where to use them, and how to create natural flow from room to room.

Designed for real homes—not just inspiration images—the Tide & Light Handbook helps you make confident design decisions before you buy paint, furnishings, or finishes, whether you’re refreshing a single room or planning an entire home.

26-page digital handbook (PDF) — educational design guide, not a custom design service or rendering.
