Arca Talk in Miami Asks: Is Colour Architecture?

A discussion on the significance of colour in design took place at Arca's Wynwood showroom in Miami, led by Dezeen US editor Ben Dreith. The panel featured interior designers Kati Curtis and Tamara Feldman, along with Tony Piloseno from Tonester Paints, who expressed a preference for shades like olive greens and Black Martini. Curtis raised concerns about colour blocking, implying it may reflect limitations in resources, while both she and Feldman cited architect Luis Barragán. Feldman highlighted her comprehensive approach to interiors, mentioning her design work for a coffee pavilion at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Miami. The panel also explored the influence of AI in design, acknowledging that colour choices are subjective. The event, which drew a significant audience, was a collaboration between Arca and Dezeen.
