Workshop: The Power of Colour in Interior Design

Join an inspiring workshop with interior designer Eliská Sapera and discover how to use colours to transform and elevate your living spaces. Guided by Eliská’s many years of interior design expertise, you’ll receive tailored advice on how to select tones, from vibrant oranges to calming blues, and tips on how to shift the ambience, the mood and depth in your home.

During the workshop, participants will use photos of specific areas in their homes that they would like to refresh and create a personal mood board using naturally dyed fabric swatches.

You’ll leave the session with a custom board, a natural dye kit to repurpose household textiles, and plenty of ideas on how to enhance your space sustainably without buying new items.

This session incorporates the shared values of the multibrand ethical retailer and B Corp Wolf & Badger.
