If you've been paying attention to interior design lately, you've probably noticed a bold, high-end trend showing up everywhere from custom new builds to historic renovations: color drenching .  At Hazelwood Painting in Chattanooga, TN , we are seeing more homeowners move beyond basic neutrals and lean into spaces that feel intentional, layered, and beautifully finished. Color drenching does exactly that - and when it is done with the right paint and the right sheen choices, it can completely transform the mood of a room. Even better? The most sophisticated take on this trend is not just "one color everywhere." It is one color, styled through multiple finishes for a custom, designer-level result.
