      Color and light are powerful tools used to transform architecture into dynamic environments, and the combination of these elements create exciting visual impressions that define the observer/user’s experience. New lighting technologies allow even greater freedom of expression in determining a color strategy. Using case studies, we’ll explore the use of color and light in a variety of architectural environments and their impact.

Learning objectives:

• Use color in lighting to make bold architectural statements that do not overpower the design program
• Review the advantages and limitations of two-color mixing systems and various technologies available in the marketplace
• Discuss practical solutions, integration implications, long-term maintenance, and methodology for determining a technology fit with the owner and design review entities.
