Product Description

Colors are an element of both the natural and the man-made environments. They convey messages of all kinds and perform a wide variety of functions such as informing, organizing, and warning. But they also serve an aesthetic purpose, affecting the statement, effect, and acceptance of objects and spaces. While people's reactions to color vary widely, in design questions it is still possible to establish generally valid color concepts to match the expectations of the various groups of users. This new, revised edition of the popular standard work Colour Communication in Space offers a guide based on a wide range of scientific findings and may be consulted as an authoritative reference by both the architecture student and the professional.
