Fundamentals of Color 3rd Edition – Benjamin Moore

By Sarah Tió

As an activity for teaching the color of the year and Benjamin Moore's chart of similar colors, Sarah Tió carries out the FUNDAMENTALS OF COLOR activity with the aim of understanding the product beyond a painting. 

See the post of the first edition to learn more about the content of the workshop: Primer edición

In this third edition it was aimed at architecture students with the aim of learning about color and knowing the possible combinations to use it as a strategy in their own designs.

 

From a point of view as architects, the workshop exposes topics such as:

  1. THEORY OF COLOR.  
  2. THE COLOR OF THE YEAR. 
  3. COLOR HARMONIES. 
  4. CREATE A MOODBOARD.

The goal of the workshop is a better understanding of color harmonies and how we can create combinations with personality by translating them into adjectives.

Results

The final dynamic consisted of defining a project x to build an idea based on colors, textures, materiality and what we can translate into adjectives in order to put what we learned into practice and achieve greater understanding. In addition, the final result by group is exposed to all those involved in the activity.
