LOVE GOOD COLOR PBC

??Color is more than just a backdrop or aesthetic tool - it’s a game-changer. When it comes to designing the optimal office environment, few elements have the same immediate and profound impact as color. According to color expert Laura Guido-Clark, founder of LOVE GOOD COLOR, the right hue can do far more than make a space look good - it's a powerful tool that can shape emotions, influence productivity, and even foster connection within the workplace.?? https://lnkd.in/er_Ew3TZ #ColorTheory

Friday was incredible at East Oakland Pride Elementary! Alongside the National Basketball Association (NBA), National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), NBA Cares, the Golden State Warriors, and over 300 amazing volunteers, we completed our largest schoolyard build as part of the 2025 NBA Cares All-Star Day of Service. This transformative day wouldn’t have been possible without the heart and dedication of our community. Together we revitalized the school’s gym, cafeteria, and library, plus planted over 1,300 trees and shrubs, created nature exploration areas and outdoor classrooms, installed two multi-sport courts, painted multiple interior and exterior murals and ground games, installed a Little Town Library, assembled book kits and so much more! This event showcased the power of collaboration and what’s possible when we come together to support Oakland’s students. Thank you to everyone who helped bring this vision to life!

Color is a Catalyst. I was grateful to spend an inspiring night with new friends and old to share the mutual love and admiration for the thing that makes life extraordinary. ??C??O??L??O??R?? Thank you Heartwork and LOVE GOOD COLOR, LLC for hosting such an incredible event for ICFF - International Contemporary Furniture Fair week. It was an honor to share the panel conversation with Laura Guido-Clark, Karen John and Madelynn Ringo to talk about broad experiences with color across work and lives. And then after, I got to catch up with old friends like Cherish Rosas, Assoc. AIA, Amanda Bacha and new friends like Elana Daniels-Won and Yatin Patel. We shared stories on a NYC rooftop, watched an engagement happen right next to us, and peered at the Empire State Buiding as it sparkled in the night sky. It was one of those NYC evenings people write movies about. All the inspiration, the warmth of good people, and the energy of springtime warm breezes. It was great to see you Rebecca Dorris Steiger, Sherri Simko, Katryna ?iurlionis, Fredmy Mejias and so many other folks I got to meet. Thank you for joining us! If you’re looking for a hangout, go visit the new collaborative showroom with Heartwork and partners Framery, Unika Vaev, Camira, Hightower, Clarus. They’re creating something special in their shared studio. #newyorknewyork #color #design #interiordesign #architecture
