Full course description

This is an onsite workshop that meets for one session from 10am-1PM EST at 170 E 70th Street.

Color is the foundation of an inviting, attractive space. Choosing colors, however, can be a daunting and time-consuming experience. This course provides a straightforward yet personal system for selecting the appropriate colors for your residential project. Using primarily paint colors, learn to compose with neutral undertones, bring in a punch color, and establish an overall mood-setting hue. This course involves visual examples and in-class color selection activities.
