Perceptuality of Color in Architecture: De Stijl and Brutalism Examples
Abstract
Color, which is a function of light, is one of the architectural design components and features that make up the physical environment, and it affects the perception of space through the sense of sight. The use of color in spaces creates different experiences and meanings by affecting the atmosphere of the space. In this context, in this study, the perceptual reflections of the concept of color in space were examined and exemplified through De Stijl and Brutalism movements. This study was designed in a qualitative research design. De Stijl and Brutalism are handled as cases, in this respect the research is a holistic multiple case study. The data collection technique applied to the cases is document review. Hermeneutic phenomenology was chosen as the analysis method. According to the analysis made, as a result of the De Stijl movement focusing on three basic colors, it can be concluded that the color acts as a landmark for other installations in this movement. On the other hand, in the Brutalism movement, it can be concluded that while the color takes its existence from the selection of the material, it can provide an appearance of integrity embedded in its background in an unnatural physicality.
