Product Description
Product Description
Written for architects, interior designers, and color consultants, this ambitious study explores the psychological and physiological effects of color in the man–made environment. Scientific findings and industry–by–industry examples are furnished to help professionals specify colors that will create healthful environments in hospitals, schools, restaurants, and other public facilities.
From the Back Cover
Color and light in Man–Made Environments Frank H. Mahnke Rudolf H. Mahnke Color and light play key—though generally unrecognized—roles in our lives. Despite the decades of research on the subject, we are often unaware that anxiety, stress, visual disorders, and a host of other problems may actually be caused by a poorly designed environment. The gap between color research and design application has been so wide that the use, for example, of white in interiors reached epidemic proportions from the 1950s to the 1970s—though research has shown white walls to be an optic strain and a psychological hazard. Color is now experiencing a renaissance in design. To guide architects, designers, and others using color, Frank and Rudolf Mahnke—two internationally recognized color consultants—have written a concise reference guide to understanding the importance of this phenomenon in our lives and applying environmental color effectively. The text synthesizes the essential principles of color and light, including their psychophysiological effects, the characteristics of the major hues, vision and light, bioenergetics, and more. The authors also provide much useful and practical advice on using color and light in a variety of facilities:
- schools
- mental hospitals
- offices
- industry
- restaurants
- medical centers
