Abstract

Color blindness is a major obstacle to children’s interaction with educational activities that rely heavily on colours, as these children have difficulty perceiving colours, which negatively affects their interaction with educational interior spaces and limits their ability to use them optimally. Hence the research problem lies in the following two questions: What are the challenges that color blind patients face in interacting with interior design? How can interactive technology be used to provide appropriate educational environments for patients with Colors blindness? The research aims to analyze the impact of color blindness on the learning experience of children in kindergarten, as well as present a design proposal for an interactive educational environment to address the challenges associated with color blindness to enhance color-blind children’s awareness of educational content. The importance of the research lies in highlighting the importance of integrating interactive technology into interior design as a tool to improve sensory and visual experiences, with a focus on groups that need special solutions, such as people with color blindness, to achieve the concept of inclusive design. The research found that employing interactive technology contributes to improving the visual perception of children with color blindness, increases their interaction with activities, and provides a comprehensive educational experience that enhances their understanding of visual concepts. The research recommends the need to employ interactive technology in educational institutions, as well as the need to develop additional interactive educational systems to meet the needs of children with color blindness at various educational levels.
