Color & Light...a designers paint box
Innovative ways to incorporate and understand the design elements of color and light to visually enhance any space while providing clients with a comfortable place to live, relax, work, shop ....and thrive!
As design professionals, we all know that using the design tools of color and light can sometimes be frustrating…. but not if we first understand the science- based interconnection between the electromagnetic ENERGIES of color and light! In this faced paced and highly interactive 2 hour session, Deborah will demystify the scientific properties of light and explain the visual spectrum of color in a way that will open your eyes to the endless possibilities of your own talent while offering YOU the skills to set your work apart! With hands-on demonstrations and real- world examples, design pros will learn:
Ø How to understand the interconnection of color and light from a user-friendly scientific perspective in order to broaden your professional expertise while increasing your perceived value in the eyes of the client
Ø Explore research- driven findings relating to the human need for color and light and discover, how as designers, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of all who occupy the spaces we design build and create
Ø Discover how the coloration of interior products and surfaces can be manipulated in order to compliment and enhance the overall project color scheme while avoiding unnecessary “color failures” and costly mistakes
Ø Learn simple and affordable techniques using color and light to visually enhance any room while adding to the comfort level, productivity and performance of all occupants within that space.
Ø Unravel the mysteries why certain colors elicit positive WOW reactions and other choices are emotional train wrecks…is it really true that red excites ??
Ø Apply clear, knowledge-based intent versus current trend imitation while specifying finish colors and lighting options so that your work will take on a well deserved leg up on the competition plus provide the client with the outcome they deserve…and expect!
