Being architectural colorists, architecture and color are two words we think go hand in hand. Whether it is bright accents that create spatial definition or neutral shades that lend the illusion of larger spaces, color is more than just an aesthetic device. When used correctly, it can be a highly effective architectural tool with the ability to transform space and create dynamic environments.

Color is a lens through which the spatial experience of a place is a malleable thing. LIKEarchitects, a Portuguese based atelier, has teamed with Canal180, the world's first open-sourced TV channel to bring you the series I Like Color, which explores exactly this relationship. Each of the series' 11 episodes features architectural projects and installations from around the world that use color in combination with spatial interventions to shape, engage, and transport users into a world of the architect's making.

Color comes alive as it interacts with site-specific conditions, such as light and shadow. Simple spaces become dynamic 3-dimensional environments where color is the atmospheric driver.

I totally agree! Color plays a big role in architecture—it not just for looks but it can change how a space feels and even how big or small it seems.
ReplyDeleteI’m working on my dissertation and I’m a bit confused about choosing the right topic. I’ve been reading a lot but still can’t decide. I want something unique and easy to research. In the middle of all this, I came across international trade law dissertation topics, but there are so many online that I don’t know which one is best.
Has anyone worked on this area before? Can you please suggest some topics that are current and simple to understand? I’d really appreciate your help and ideas.
