Color is extremely important in our perception and understanding of the world. It changes our moods, it evokes emotion, and it helps solidify memory. Listen as Laura Guido-Clark chats about the power of color in the world and in the furniture industry. 


Laura is a designer by trade, but she fell in love with the study of color. She now designs her own textiles and helps her customers solidify their brand feel through the texture and color of her custom creations.


The way she thinks about color and its impact on the emotional process of experience is truly unique. We chat about why we pick certain colors as our favorites over time and how we associate our memories with colors as a whole. 


Beauty, as an experience, is a human right, and the colors that the world has to offer are a pure delight. Listen as she shares her story and how she’s turned her passion for color into a profitable business within our industry.
