Class Reflection: October 9th

This week's class was Vaike's second lecture. It was a follow up on her introduction to color in architecture from her previous lecture. We began the class by sharing our personal reactions to the colors she assigned us to meditate on. I was intrigued by how similar everyone felt from visualizing each color. People are obviously directed, albeit subconsciously by all the color we interact with. I find this fascinating, and the inclusion of color in Interior Design is part of my reason in choosing it as my focus.

It goes without saying that I found Vaike's color therapy spa inspiring. I share the passion she has for color, but also in helping people. I think it is becoming more and more evident in society today that alternative medicine has been underminded. Treatments like the one Vaike introduced us to are slowly being woven into the general fabric of healing and well being.

I plan to learn more on this topic in my career, and will incorporate it into my designs.
