Our Coffee with the Council Call Series had a pretty “COLORFUL” Kickoff Start to the Spring 2021 semester! Shaking the cozy and slightly lazy vibes from the holiday season off and replacing them with the energy and hype of colors definitely created a fresh & light atmosphere. 

Not only did we learn a lot about the use of Color in Architecture & Design World Amongst Global Cultures while playing our Kahoot Trivia, but we also shared our thoughts, personal experiences, and ways of understanding and using color. We asked each other: 

What is your color?

What is one color that lifts your spirit? 

Do different colors inspire you? 

Color turned out to be an inspiration, a memory, a symbol, power, self identification/ style, taste of design, aesthetics, fashion and many more things! What else can color be? How many different roles does color play in our lives and the universe? Just keep asking more questions, spreading curiosity and knowledge while inspiring and bonding with each other. This is what Coffee w/ the Council Calls are for!
