In the five years that Brad and Kendra Dufton have owned their 820-square-foot South End brownstone condo, they've painted the walls four different shades. It's not that they're indecisive; they simply love color. Which makes sense: Brad has his own design service and painting and wallpaper-hanging business, called ColorTheory. Here's what they used to master modern glamour in their own abode.
