The impact of color on healing is becoming an increasingly important topic of interest for both the scientific and design communities. This course begins with a discussion how humans actually perceive color, both physically and emotionally. The course then reviews how color can impact human mood and behavior, with a special focus on the healing properties and benefits of color. Finally, the course describes how an understanding of the healing properties of color can help improve the design of healthcare facilities and specific spaces within them.
