Taking the Rubik’s Cube as reference, the project is formed by different rooms that welcome different sensations, by colours and different opacities on the glass.A study was done on the most appropriate sensations. We focused on the study of Chromotherapy. Because Light has a powerful impact on humans well-being and health. This therapy consists in the use of color and light to stimulate wellbeing. Different colors and shades have different effects. By using individual colors, we can control the effects that the light has on people. Each color on the spectrum will have its own effect on the body, mind and emotions.This is a very interesting theme because the light spectrum is unlimited and every color gives a different sensation. Every color has its own unique properties plus, doesn’t require expensive equipment or takes up lots of space. You can offer it as a stand-alone therapy or integrate it into your other treatments.
