Do you want to become a Colour Consultant?
IDI's Specialisation Course in Colour Consultant is a training course that, through specific teaching, will enable you to learn a series of design specifications that can be applied to various sectors and uses: from fashion textiles to furniture, cosmetics and the transportation sector
Nowadays, all Style, Product, but also commercial and by extension all company departments, cannot do without the varied concept of colour, thus collaborating with the figure of the Colour Consultant.
Colours are vehicles of codes, taboos and prejudices and therefore influence so
so much our com-portment, our language, our imagery, our desires, our purchases. The grammar of colour, which reveals colours to us as not innocent, contaminated as they are by emotions, sensations and meanings, conscious and unconscious, makes them speak a multiform language that is constantly evolving. A language that if known and deciphered, when applied with the appropriate wisdom, can bring high added value to any project from interior to fashion design to any other design field. The Specialisation Course in Colour Consultant provides useful notions to become connoisseurs of the multifaceted world of colour, acquiring skills that can be spent in changing design fields.
The Specialisation Course in Colour Consultant is aimed at designers, architects, home stagers, fashion stylists, interior designers, graphic designers... and all enthusiasts who want to acquire skills in this field.

The Colour Consultant is a professional figure who can work in the fashion, design, architecture, furnishing, communication... sector, either freelance or within companies that, in their design development, increasingly make use of the creative input of the professional who brings value to the product. The work of the Colour Consultant complements that of the architect or designer with whom work is developed through symbiotic collaboration.
The Colour Consultant can carry out more specific activities, following in particular the work of the "variantist" (he who, through colour, code and sign, knows how to decline a fabric, a garment, an object in the different chromatic versions) or of the "variantist arranger" (he who, with varying degrees of technical knowledge and creative inclination, translates the original idea into concrete proposals)
