Course Overview
Color is one of the most powerful tools in an interior designer's arsenal, yet it's also one of the most misunderstood. This advanced course goes beyond basic color theory to explore the nuances of color relationships, the psychological impact of different hues, and the practical application of color in real-world design projects.
You'll learn how to analyze spaces, assess lighting conditions, and create color palettes that not only look beautiful but also serve the functional and emotional needs of the occupants. Through hands-on exercises and real case studies, you'll develop the confidence to make bold color choices and guide clients through the often-intimidating process of selecting colors for their spaces.
This course is perfect for designers who want to elevate their color skills, understand the science behind color perception, and develop a signature approach to color that sets their work apart. By the end of the course, you'll have a portfolio of color schemes and the knowledge to create custom palettes for any project.
