Color Ward transforms a former 1920s Ford automobile dealership into a vibrant immersive exhibition for the Knoxville community to experience the psychological effects that colors can have on the human mind. A sequence is prescribed by acting doctors and nurses upon arrival through a rudimentary mental-health screening. The purpose of the exhibit is to evoke a series of emotions through colors by stimulating all 5 of the basic human senses. Along with the permanent exhibition spaces, the building would also house a small retail space, a multi-use event space, and a two-story bar with 360-degree rooftop views of the North Knoxville community.
