A propos de ce titre

Synopsis :

Color has always been a powerful tool in architecture: it can influence perceptions of space and form, convey meaning and intention and guide the viewer’s sensory experience. However, it has lost importance in contemporary architectural practice and teaching. Compiled by the Graz-based research collective Diskursiv, this volume explores the discipline’s shifting attitudes toward color and its use by architects today. Approaching the topic on a theoretical level, the contributors stress color’s potential impact and make an impassioned case for its return to building discourse. Against the dogma of the universal white box, they advocate for color’s rediscovery as a central instrument of architectural practice. The second volume by the Graz architectural research association Diskursiv Considers the positions, approaches, and working methods of various architecture offices with regard to color and colorfulness
