Summary/Abstract: The article presents the process of completing a learning assignment for students majoring in Graphic Design in the Painting and Visual Arts course. It is a project on a preset theme: “Colour Composition for an Exterior Wall Layout.” In this case, unlike regular training assignments, a real location was chosen with the corresponding requirements for the site and the environment. The text comments on the emerging need to create a different strategy, uniting the mastery of many more functions than in the implementation of a theory. It investigates the relationship of the real object and its specific parameters with the students’ work (motivation, activity, and achievement of the goals). Conditions are set for tracking all stages, including organization, participants, practical implementation, etc. Furthermore, the paper outlines the subsequent impacts of the implementation of the project in an aesthetic and social aspect.
