Course Detail: WKSH-066 - MORNING: COLOR / LIGHT / SPACE - AN IMMERSIVE DESIGN WORKSHOP


COLOR / LIGHT / SPACE - An Immersive Design Workshop**

Step inside the world of perception. In this fast-paced, hands-on workshop, participants transform a simple white box into a glowing atmospheric installation inspired by the work of James TurrellOlafur Eliasson, and Josef Albers. Using color papers, colored light, and simple spatial interventions, you will explore how color shifts with adjacency, how light becomes architecture, and how atmosphere shapes emotion. This workshop combines art, design, and sensory experience to demonstrate how interior designers utilize materials, light, and color to create powerful spatial moods.

You will leave with:

  • a photographed mini-installation that looks like a museum light piece

  • a custom color story based on Albers' Interaction of Color

  • a deeper understanding of how designers use light and perception to shape space


Step into the box, shift your perception, and design the atmosphere itself.

Perfect for anyone interested in the future of experiential interiors.

This workshop will be provided by the CCS Interior Design Department
