INTERIOR COLOR GUIDELINES:

• The approved color palette will be used as the standard on all new and existing building interiors.
• All standard colors will be readily available on campus.
• If an exception is requested (i.e. a custom color), it must be approved by the Dean of the college or the Vice President of the department before it is submitted to the Facilities department.
• Disposal fees for all custom colors will be charged to the project painted. The college/department is responsible for returning all custom colored walls to the standard palette, upon departure from the space.
• All rooms shall have only one accent wall color and one of the two base colors for the other three.
• Panda White is specified for the base color for all new buildings.
• Faculty, staff, or students are not allowed to paint their own space.
• For additional information, please contact FIXIT Customer Service at fixit@uh.edu.

BILLING:

• In auxiliary buildings, all painting is billable.
• For E/G buildings, all painting in private spaces is billable including offices, conference rooms, labs, and departmental suites.
• For common spaces, touch up painting is non-billable.
• Full paints are billable, unless Facilities Services deems the existing paint beyond its useful life

NOTE: Printing the paint palette directly from the website document is useful as an informative document but it should be noted that it will not give accurate paint colors due to a variation on printers and copiers.

The official Paint Palette document with real paint chips is available  upon request by emailing Facilities Services.
