Colorful Colors


In the end, it's all about colors and lighting.

Just like a car, the life of a building depends on the health of its structure. The heart and the lung and the vein of a building is its HVAC system. Everybody knows it. And just like any living mechanism, regular checkups and maintenance are the key to its longevity.

Yet, when you actually experience the building, it's all about lighting and colors. They are not cosmetics of the building, since they are often integral part of the structure. How much natural light is available? What kind of artificial light is used. What color is the facade, interior walls, and the floor?

What color is your wall behind your computer?
