EXPLORING THE HIDDEN COLORS OF THE CITY — With product designer and trend researcher Tina Stieger

Sunday 18. May at 11:00 - 14:30

MAISON SHIFT – 1st Floor / Metal Stairs, Zürich

Discover the hidden colors of the city with Tina Stieger! Learn how to develop your own color charts and palettes through observation and experimentation. Colors are everywhere. They surround us daily, but do we truly notice them?

In this workshop, you will learn how to develop your own color charts, palettes, and compositions through targeted observation and experimentation. The urban environment becomes your creative research field – from green islands like street edges to vegetation-covered riverbanks along the Limmat.

After a brief introduction to the historical context and cultural significance of colors, we will go on an exploration together. We will look for hidden color treasures in the city. Tina will guide you through the creative process of discovering, analyzing, and translating colors into your own color charts and expressive compositions. By the end of the workshop, you will take home your own color chart and composition.
