You walk into your kitchen on Monday morning feeling energised and ready to tackle the day. But on Tuesday, in that same space, you feel sluggish and unmotivated.

Nothing else has changed; it is the same lighting, layout, and breakfast routine. What's different?

Often, it could be something as subtle as how the morning light hits your wall colours, or how yesterday's stress is affecting your perception of your colour palette.

Most of us think colour is just about what looks pretty, is trending, or matches our furniture. But colour theory in experiential interior design goes much deeper. It's about understanding how colours actively shape our daily experience and using that knowledge strategically.

Colour design is even more important in small spaces because there's less visual competition and more colour saturation per square foot. Every choice has a significant impact on our mood, energy levels, and how the space functions throughout the day.

Here's what you'll learn:

  • The impact of different colours on mood, energy levels, and spatial perception in compact homes.

  • The science behind why certain colour combinations can make small spaces feel larger or more intimate.

  • Strategic colour placement that guides movement and creates functional zones.

  • Why traditional colour rules often fail in small spaces and what works better.

  • Creating colour palettes that support your daily rhythms and enhance natural well-being
