1. A system comprising:
a kiosk having an input device, a display device, and an optical code reader, and having access to a database storing a plurality of entries, with each entry of the plurality of entries including information indicating a first product and a plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors for the first product; and
the kiosk being configured to receive an identification code of a first product sample scanned by the optical code reader, query the database for the entry corresponding to the first product associated with the scanned identification code, retrieve the plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors for the first product from the corresponding entry in the database for the first product associated with the scanned identification code, and display on the display device (i) a color selection section that shows the plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors for the first product, (ii) a selected color section that shows a selected paint color from the plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors, and (iii) a simulated environment including a sample room including at least one feature corresponding to the first product and having a plurality of selectable surfaces including a wall of the sample room and a trim of the sample room, the kiosk being further configured to receive with the input device a first selected paint color from the plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors, to update the selected color section to show the first selected paint color, to receive with the input device a first selected surface from the plurality of selectable surfaces of the sample room, to update the simulated environment to display the first selected paint color on the first selected surface of the sample room, to receive with the input device a second selected paint color from the plurality of preselected coordinating paint colors, to update the selected color section to display the second selected paint color, to receive with the input device a second selected surface from the plurality of selectable surfaces of the sample room, and to update the simulated environment to additionally display the second selected paint color on the second selected surface of the sample room, the first selected surface being one of the wall of the sample room and the trim of the sample room and the second selected surface being the other of the wall of the sample room and the trim of the sample room.
