                                          In a tough economy you need to be creative to win jobs, complete them on time, and guarantee the customer is 110% satisfied.  
                                           
                                        An especially challenging job for Depend was a local medical office. 
                                             
                                            It was a large facility with 37 exam rooms and offices (also included common area spaces).                                             
                                          The   job required removing wallcovering, prepping walls, installing new   wallcovering and painting doorframes.   
                                             
                                            Each week, we had a deadline of   assuring seven exam rooms were ready for cabinet installation by first   thing on Tuesday morning.    
                                          The   walls were in very bad shape and needed a full skim coat.  
                                             
                                            Saturdays and   Sundays were workdays to "paint around" business and patients, while   relying on large fans to dry the skim coat.     
By the end of the job, our customer was 110% satisfied, and we were proud of a job well done and on-time.

                                          According   to Sherwin-Williams, the color trend in 2012 will be colors that "are   analogous, or adjacent on the color wheel."  Its color families are   created in four palettes: reds, blues, greens, and neutrals.

                                          In a study done at the University of Texas at Austin, subjects evaluated red, green, and white offices.  
                                             
                                            White   was the preferred color for creating the most pleasant work   environment.  People also indicated it appeared to be the most spacious. 
                                             
                                            In another study conducted by NASA,   the findings showed an individuals ability to screen out their   environment impacted their performance in white offices.  People who   have a harder time screening out their environment indicated a greater   negative mood in a white office.  The conclusion of this study was that   different people react to colors differently, but that mood did not   necessarily lead to productivity differences.
