They convey messages of all kinds and perform a wide variety of functions, informing, organizing, warning.

While people’s reactions to color vary widely, in design questions it is still possible to establish generally valid color concepts to match the expectations of the various groups of users. This book offers a guide based on a wide range of scientific findings and may be consulted as an authoritative reference by the architecture student and the professional alike.

Download or read book Colors written by D. R. Martin and published by SmartyPants Press. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Color is all around us, influencing us in subtle psychological ways that are largely unknown to us. Since the effects cause no physical harm, we just take the color communication channel with a harmless "hmmm, interesting but not making a tangible difference in life" view on it. This attitude was not without merit, until the boom in psychological research over the last few decades has now given us cause to re-think the importance of this and other previously unknown influencing factors. Once it's understood that color has a definite and profound influence, it just makes good sense to avail ourselves of this new research and use it to communicate even better, using this knowledge to best effect. Color impacts not only how we view an object, an environment, other people, but also impacts how they see us and how we see ourselves. Your response to color can tell much about you, as well as send subconscious messages about you to others. The secret communication tool hiding in plain sight - when you know how tto read it. Learn how, plus the SmartyPants Secret on color. A SmartyPants Secret is that one piece of information that you need to know to make every job a little bit, or maybe a lot, easier. Almost everything we do in life has a SmartyPants secret that to it, that knowing the "secret" would help tremendously in shortening the learning curve. Experts, who have hours of experience doing what the novice is attempting to do, have intimate knowledge, which may not be so secret, but it is key information that the novice greatly needs. If you've ever struggled with something then learned the 'something' afterwards that caused you to say to yourself or say aloud, "Well, if I only known THAT before I did this, it would've made a world of difference!" then you just learned a SmartyPants secret - the hard way. The short SmartyPants Secrets books give you the secret that you need on a given topic, the most important piece of information that makes the greatest difference between easier success and hard-fought failure. Solving problems is not the SmartyPants concept; rather it is having that key knowledge piece that makes efforts easier and perhaps successful faster. Plus hopefully avoiding having the problem in the first place. We do anything in life because we have a goal to achieve. Reaching that goal successfully, quickly, and easier knowing the SmartPants secret is the SmartyPants concept in action. All SmartyPants secrets have a physiological root, grounded in shared human biology - making every SmartyPants secret valid for everyone. While we are all uniquely different, our common biology consists of inherited traits, stretching back to the Neanderthal era. Applying a SmartyPants secret will work for you no matter who you are.

The opening chapter of this new volume stems from the conference keynote talk on prehistoric colour semantics by Carole P. Biggam. The remaining chapters are grouped into three sections: colour and linguistics; colour categorization, naming and preference; and colour and the world. Each section is preceded by a short preface drawing together the themes of the chapters within it. There are thirty-one colour illustrations.
