Abstract

La couleur fait partie intégrante de l'architecture depuis l'Antiquité. La théorie des couleurs étant rarement enseignée, les architectes doivent apprendre à utiliser la couleur et en apprécier les interactions. L'ouvrage aborde les fondamentaux sur la couleur et est illustré de nombreux exemples de nature à éclairer les architectes sur son usage intimement lié à la conception. As far back as the earliest Greek temples, color has been an integral part of architecture but also one of its least understood elements. Color theory is rarely taught in architecture schools, leaving architects to puzzle out the hows and whys of which colors to select and how they interact, complement, or clash. 0'Color for Architects' is profusely illustrated and provides a clear, concise primer on color for designers of every kind. This latest volume in our 'Architecture Briefs' series combines the theoretical and practical, providing the basics on which to build a fuller mastery of this essential component of design. A wealth of built examples, exercises, and activities allows students to apply their learning of color to real-world situations.
