Synopsis
Written for architects, interior designers, and color consultants, this ambitious study explores the psychological and physiological effects of color in the man-made environment., 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., An Interdisciplinary Understanding of Color and Its Use as a Beneficial Element in the Design of the Architectural Environment Written primarily for professionals involved in the planning and design of public facilities, Color, Environment, and Human Response examines the properties and effects of color, and makes specific recommendations for the use of color in environments ranging from school gymnasiums to hospital EKG rooms to industrial foundries. The first part of this practical and useful guide discusses the psychological and physiological effects of color, light, and environmental conditions on the human organism. This information is based on the most up-to-date international man/environment research available. Drawing from studies in fields that seem unrelated to architecture fields such as natural science, color theory, technology, biology, medicine, and psychology Mr. Mahnke combines hard scientific evidence with empirical studies and his own professional experience as a color consultant to create a fascinating guide to the purposeful use of color. Here he examines: The psychological effects of color Color fundamentals Biological effects of light Analysis of design goals In the second part of Color, Environment, and Human Response, Mr. Mahnke gives practical advice on the use of color and light for specific purposes in a broad scope of environments. From hospitals to industrial workplaces, each environment is thoroughly covered function-by-function. The chapter on healthcare facilities, for example, includes advice for every area from the entrance lobby, to laboratories, to staff lounges, to intensive care. Just a few of the many built environments covered in illuminating detail include: Offices and computer workstations Schools Healthcare facilities Restaurants and food display Industrial work environments Color for exteriors Whether youre an architect, designer, city planner, lighting engineer, or color consultant, youll learn how to create healthy and productive environments with Color, Environment, and Human Response.
