Summary:
The interaction between color and architecture determines our perception of space, and defines the tectonic relationships. The fascinating spatial potential of color, and the multi-layered dimensions of interpretation in the experience of color are design and communication means which, however, are often not fully used ? color oscillates between autonomy and functional purpose, and should be understood as a distinct "material" that can be used as part of the design. The book focuses both on the tangible aspects and design criteria of color, and on its indeterminate nature and its experience value. Using examples in art and architecture, the spatial interdependency of color is illustrated, as is its interaction with structure, light, and geometry.

The colour black is considered by many as a simple expression of darkness and gloom, indeed as a non-colour or the mere absence of light. In actuality however, like no other colour it stands for entire conditions of the soul, for the immense wealth of cultural-historical connotations, which evokes the most opposing of associations: Malewitsch's black square, a black hole, black riders, the black widow, black magic, black sheep, black box or black beauty - black stands for the traditional and the modern, for reduction and for opulence, for deprivation and for exoticism, for eccentricity and for elegance, for gravity, etc.
