What do you like about this subject?  Color is my life! It's also the most variable and challenging factor in architecture, interior design, or any other type of design, so that is the challenge.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I learn somehting new all the time.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  There are a lot of "color urban legends" out there.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  A lot of what you read on the Internet about color is incorrect. So only trust reliable sources like trained consultants such as members of the IACC-NA.
