The first and second days of colour in India







We held the first Day of Colour in India at KCT in Coimbatore. We were honoured to meet the principal Dr Joseph Thanikal as well as Professors and HOD of Fashion Technology, DR Ramachandralu, as well as Dr D'Souza. Professor and HOD Textile Technology. Mr Sankaran Professor and Head coordinator made sure our tour of the facilities were successful. Siva arranged the event and I gave a talk on colour perception, best practice , Ramya Kandiyoor from International Colour Solutions presented about how important it is to have the right colour standards and Llaxmi Natarajan an inspirational designer based in Australia encouraged the students to share the design concepts.

I need to mention here how impressive the main building was it looked like a palace and you can see it in the back drop of one of the pictures.

We held the second Day of Colour at PSG in Coumbatore, unfortunately I don't have any photographs but the same event was held with the same speakers. Dr T Ramachandran hosted the event very well. It was here that we saw the most amazing sari design with 164,000 hues.
