Course Overview

Through learning the colour theory, in this workshop, it allowed to me to better appreciate the impact that colour (when used effectively) has on relatively simple designs. For instance, through doing the elevation exercise and by looking through the works of Luis Barragan, as part of my precedent study, I noticed how colour can add a layer of depth and complexity (as well as gives life)to a simple structure, which would have otherwise looked plain without colour. The most rewarding aspect of this workshop is that it gave me the opportunity to use and learn more about Photoshop. The skills that I have picked up through using Photoshop will be of great value to me, for future architectural courses, which focus on design and image manipulation. Also through learning the colour theory, it's enabled me to have some understanding of how colour is used in certain built environments, e.g. the walls inside hospitals are painted sometimes pale blue to promote calm and reduce anxiety. Overall I felt this was the most challenging (and expensive) workshop.
