The Dulux Let's Colour project has taken to the corridors of MCAST for a second successful edition of the programme. First-year interior design students following a Higher National Diploma put their skills to the test with an Interior Design Project organised by Vee Gee Bee. Students set out to design three MCAST corridors, with the aim of creating a more vibrant environment using colour. The winning design was selected by a panel consisting of representatives from MCAST as well as Vee Gee Bee.

The Let's Colour programme aims to make a positive difference to people's lives through colour. Through this event, not only did students get the chance to see their work showcased for everyone to enjoy but they also had an opportunity to learn about the importance of colour and the psychology behind it. Vee Gee Bee's colour consultant Trudy Xuereb also spoke about other Let's Colour projects organised by Dulux internationally.

The chosen concept was designed by Marie Rapa, Jo Marie Mayo, Sophia Kuzmenko and Stephanie Lehniger, under the guidance of teachers Shawn Muscat and Vanessa Pace O'Shea. Speaking about their design, they said: "We were inspired by the natural light reflected uniquely in each corridor and selected colours and design schemes that emphasised these reflections." The students described the project as an enjoyable and insightful experience and said they look forward to future events organised by Vee Gee Bee in collaboration with Dulux.
