What is the best tool/technique for realistic color changes? I have a series of photos of architectural interiors and exteriors and I need to manipulate colors of walls, shutters, doors, furnishings etc. so show them as different colors.

There are several methods and some make work better on different object within your photo.

Here's a good starting point using Photoshop's replace color options - Photoshop: how to change color of an object - YouTube

I like to use the colour lookup tool, there are some default presets that can simulate a photograph

You can find in Adjustment layer

I like to use select color range, then put that color on a separate layer and clean it up, then use hue/saturation to change the color.

1. Select Color range

2. Command+J , new layer from selection

3. turn off lower layer so you can see your selection

4. do any necessary cleanup

5. turn lower layer back on

6. hue/saturation
