Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Colour and light have largely been considered as belonging to two different fields of knowledge, having disparate theoretical, terminological and methodological traditions. This creates a ground for misunderstandings and obstructs a fruitful interdisciplinary and interprofessional collaboration. A survey over international research literature from 2006 -2011 shows that there has been only little research on the spatial interaction between colour and light, but that the interest for this area has recently increased. The interdisciplinary Nordic research project SYN-TES: Human colour and light synthesis. Towards a coherent field of knowledge was carried out during 2010-11. Colour and light experts from Nordic universities and companies investigated different aspects of the spatial interaction between colour and light and its importance for human beings. This paper deals with the general learnings from the process. Specific results are presented in other papers at this conference.

Colour Research with Architectural Relevance : How Can Different Approaches Gain from each Other?
- 2010

In: Color Research and Application. - : Wiley. - 0361-2317 .- 1520-6378. ; 35:2, s. 145-152

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Colour research from different scientific traditions start from different basic questions and use different methods and concepts. This makes it difficult to communicate and to Judge result relevance in a wider perspective. Here we start from architects' need of colour knowledge and discuss recent studies of colour appearance and colour emotion, with and without explicit connection to architecture. We stress the need for further development and clarification of concepts and conclude that the multitude of studies With different approaches con be seen os cases, jointly adding to a widened and deepened understanding of colour.

A cross-cultural comparison of colour emotion for two-colour combinations
- 2012
-
In: Color Research and Application. - : Wiley. - 1520-6378 .- 0361-2317. ; 37:1, s. 23-43
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Psychophysical experiments were conducted in the UK, Taiwan, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Argentina, and Iran to assess colour emotion for two-colour combinations using semantic scales warm/cool, heavy/light, active/passive, and like/dislike. A total of 223 observers participated, each presented with 190 colour pairs as the stimuli, shown individually on a cathode ray tube display. The results show consistent responses across cultures only for warm/cool, heavy/light, and active/passive. The like/dislike scale, however, showed some differences between the observer groups, in particular between the Argentinian responses and those obtained from the other observers. Factor analysis reveals that the Argentinian observers preferred passive colour pairs to active ones more than the other observers. In addition to the cultural difference in like/dislike, the experimental results show some effects of gender, professional background (design vs. nondesign), and age. Female observers were found to prefer colour pairs with high-lightness or low-chroma values more than their male counterparts. Observers with a design background liked low-chroma colour pairs or those containing colours of similar hue more than nondesign observers. Older observers liked colour pairs with high-lightness or high-chroma values more than young observers did. Based on the findings, a two-level theory of colour emotion is proposed, in which warm/cool, heavy/light, and active/passive are identified as the reactive-level responses and like/dislike the reflective-level response.

How to Visualize the Invisible Simulating Air Pollution Dispersions in a 3D City Model
- 2013

Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This is a work in progress on how to visualize air pollution dispersion in 3D from a street perspective. Invisible environmental factors, such as air pollution, are hard to present in a comprehensible way, and thus difficult to grasp. Consequently these questions often get low priority in urban planning processes. In order to create a better understanding for e.g. air pollution at street level, a visual concept for 3D-city models needs to be developed, where a walk through perspective at street level with pollution levels is included. An urban area in central Gothenburg (Fig 1A,B) is studied regarding the quality of air following changes in the built environment. The project explores different ways to represent environmental factors in 3D-city models. Spreading calculations for particles are carried out, based on the plan for new buildings in the area. For comparison, a scenario of the current situation are produced, based on existing calculations for emissions from traffic and harbour activities. Finally, the air pollution visualization will be integrated in the 3D city model of Gothenburg.

The Virtual Colour Laboratory: The development of an interactive web application for colour education
- 2013
-
In: Proceeding for AIC 2013 - 12th International AIC Congress: Bringing Colour to Life.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper presents the development of the popular science project The Virtual Colour Laboratory (VCL), and the problems connected to translating spatial colour phenomena to a digital spatial context, from the viewpoint of practice based architectural research. The original idea was to create an application where users could explore colour phenomena while walking around in a photorealistic 3D-environment. Eventually it became apparent that the problems connected to visualisation of colour appearance and spatial experience could not be solved without simplifying the concept. So instead of modelling in 3D, the application was based on 2D-images, derived from thorough studies of colour phenomena in real life situations. VCL, in its current form, is an interactive web based application for visual presentation and demonstration of existing research results on spatial colour phenomena. It currently contains eight different stations, presenting and demonstrating either a spatial colour phenomenon or a principle for simultaneous contrast. We now want to expand the application to demonstrate more colour phenomena. In this development we invite other researchers to contribute with new stations.
