Colour and Light: Spatial Experience

Editat de Karin Fridell Anter, Ulf Klaren
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 mai 2017
Colour and Light: Spatial Experience describes the coherent interaction of light and colour in the spatial context. It explains the nature of light to colour specialists, and the nature of colour to light specialists, simultaneously conveying an understanding that light and colour must be thought of together. In addition, it brings out the apparent contradictions between the practically based knowledge of craftsmen, engineers and designers, and the theoretically based knowledge of academics in various disciplines.
Including background context, facts and possible approaches, the book provides a basic understanding of light and colour, and their significance for humans in the spatial context.

Recenzii

‘Understanding architectural space from the perspective of light and colour is an enriching experience. There have been no other books that describe colour and light dynamics in a spatial context. Colour and Light: Spatial Experience should be required reading for both designers and academics alike.’ - Galen Minah, Associate Professor, Department of Architecture, College of Built Environments, University of Washington, Seattle WA, USA.
‘This is going straight onto my list of books that I recommend to students of design. Separate chapters deal with light sources, paint, the specification of colour and the visual characteristics of materials, but it all comes together at the end. Rather as Einstein introduced the new concept of space/time to physics, here we have the synthesis of space/light/colour.’ - Dr Paul Green-Armytage, Associate of Curtin University, Past President of the Colour Society of Australia.
Colour and Light: Spatial Experience establishes a milestone in the knowledge that cannot be missed in the library of anyone involved in colour and light.’ - Prof. Arch. Pietro Zennaro, Iuav University of Venice, Italy.

Descriere

The book provides a basic understanding of light and colour, and their significance for humans in the spatial context. It provides background context, facts and possible approaches; it is neither a manual of how to use colour and light practical or aesthetically, nor it is a traditional presentation of given aesthetic principles or doctrines.
