Title: Color: A Visual Language
 
General Information
Description: Describe how color works, explain emotional, behavioral and physical responses to color, specify colors that positively effect health, safety and welfare of occupants and define colors and materials used for energy-efficient and sustainable design.
Abstract: While color preferences can drive residential interiors, they are insufficient for most contract applications. Yet many clients expect designers to yield to preference alone. Experience and intuition keep designers from making serious color mistakes. This class reinforces what design professionals already know, and provides words to back it up. We discuss how color affects behavior, health, safety and welfare while we also explore past, present and future color trends and apply the principles in specific contexts. This seminar includes one hour spent addressing sustainable design issues. Filled with tints, tones and shades of humor, this seminar delivers fun and dynamic information about color applications for licensed design professionals.
