Home. The definition of what makes a house a home may not have changed, but the disruption caused by the global health crisis has upended how we live in, feel about and use our homes. As designers, you play a vital role in helping your clients transform underutilized spaces and incorporate colors and materials that help them create a sense of well-being in their homes. You will learn more about the role paint technologies play in promoting better indoor air quality, recognize how intrinsic color is in the wellness discussion, and identify design elements that harness the power of nature to promote physical and emotional well-being.
