Interior Architectu My dad actually graduated in 2008 from FIU with his Master’s in Architecture and man... he is an AMAZING designer! He was recognized by the AIA as a student! As a little girl, my mom would take me to pick him up in studio and I would have to hear his longgggg borrringgg hourrrsss about his major. I did NOT like any second of it. That was the mind of a 5 year old for you! I always said I would never study architecture. 11 years later... HERE I AM! Interior Architect in the making. Following my father’s foot steps and I couldn’t be more proud to have an amazing example of a father to look up to.

CH. 3 COLOR+THEORY


Did you know that there is a deeper meaning behind color? Color is more than just a rainbow. There are different shades to color that end up having an effect on the eye and psychology depending on the shade and lighting and that is

COLOR THEORY!

Color Theory explains the concepts and ideas involved in describing and rationalizing phenomena about a particular subject. Theories, for the most part, are unproven and continue to be studied to provide additional insight into the particular subject. A way to better understand the complementary colors, hues, analogs, triadic, and tretradic colors is by using a

COLOR WHEEL!

COLOR+DESIGNER


A N T O N I

About: Antoni Gaudi was one of the most famous architects from Spain. Some would call him “God’s Architect” due to his architectural style, according to Master Class Articles. Most might know him from his famous architecture, The Basilica de la Sagrada Familia.

Born: June 25, 1852 Birth Place: Catalonia, Spain Education: Provincial School of Architecture, 1878

Famous Structures: The Basilica de la

G A U D I

Sagrada Famila, Casa Mila, The Episcopal Palace of Astorga, Palau Guell and Parc Guell, & Casa

Batllo

Architectural Style: Neo-gothic, Art Nouveau, & Catalan Modernism

Architectural Characteristics: Vivid Colors & Textures, Natural & Organic Designs, & Religious Imagery


CASA B Anton Gaudí was inspiried by vivid colors, textures, nature and religious imagery. The inspiration for parts of this house were the calm waves that shape the sea. The other part of the house was inspired by nature with broken mosaic tiles, broken glass, oil paintings, and ceramic glaze. The crown of the facade was inspired by a dragons back. According to the Casa Batllo website, legends has it that Saint George, the patron saint of Catalonia, killed the dragon with his sword to save the princess which inspired the design for the structure. Casa Batllo is known for the house of bones or the house of the dragon.


BATLLO Antoni Gaudi was an architect who was not afraid to test his limits. His structure is multi-colored, vibrant, and filled with ceramic mosaic tiles and stained glass. The natural style in his structure gives a sense of nature because his design mimics trees or caves in the curves of his structure. The windows also represent the gothic style from cathedrals in Spain. The use of color between each space effect the emotional psychology of individuals, which was exactly the style he was going for.


CH. 5

COLOR+PERCEPTION


Did you know that not everyone can see color the same way? The perception of color varies in individual depending on the age of the eye, the health of someone, if one is color blind, etc. Color Perception is influenced by the hue, saturation, and brightness. The number one factor in color perception is the

HUMAN EYE & BRAIN!

The eye is an extension to the brain and this sends information of the shape, color, and movement. The eye’s retina-cones is what processes the daylight and light receptors. The eye’s rods process the night dim light and value receptors. There are three different sets of cones in the eye that are sensitive to to wavelengths of light:

RED, BLUE & GREEN!


This is a COLOR PERCEPTION test. Go on & Give it a TRY!

This is an Ishihara Test. This is a type of color test where there are multiple dots that form a number and different color dots are surrounding that number. Someone who may be color blind might see the whole circle as one color. Someone who isn’t diagnosed with color blindness can see the different in color and notice the number in the center which is 74, 12, 6, and 42. (I am not a professional who studied medicine so if you have any questions or concerns of color blindness, you may want to contact your doctor in reference to this.)


CH. 6

COLOR+ENVIRONMENT


Written By: Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert This film is obsessed with COLOR! You will catch RED, GREEN, WHITE, BLUE, & RAINBOW, throughout every ounce of clothing in the film. The writers represent Yin & Yang in the film through the main characters Evelyn Wang and Waymond Wang because their opposite personalities attract and work together in the end. The meaning of color is influenced by Chinese culture in this film. Getting a deeper understanding of the film will open an individuals “third eye.”


White represents death and Black represents evil in Chinese culture. Joy is Evelyn and Wangs daughter who is going through lack of acceptance and an alternate dimension of version of Joy is Jobu, who created the white dimension of death and the black bagel represents evil thoughts that nothing matters which is Joy’s inner thoughts.


Red is the national color in Chinese culture which represents strength. Evelyn wears red and there is red lighting throughout the film. Evelyn represents red because she chooses to overcome problems with her strength in fighting. She is the opposite of her husband Wang.


Green means patience and sensitivity in Chinese culture. Wang wears green throughout the film to represent the patience he has to overcome problems with kindness through his sensitive personality. He is the opposite of Evelyn. In the color wheel, Green is the opposite of Red.


In the color wheel Red and Green make Yellow. Deirdre is a tax collector who is in the middle of Evelyn and Wang’s shop getting closed. In the color wheel, Yellow is in between Red and Green. Deirdre then came in the middle of Evelyn and Wang which helped them save their laundry store and their marriage by creating balance.


At the end of the movie, the color Blue is showed through the clothes and lighting. Blue means advancement in chinese culture. Evelyn, Wang, and Joy are wearing Blue because they were finally able to overcome their problems leading to a positive advancement in their family.


CH. 7 COLOR+HEALTH


Health can take a big role with color perception The top three health-releated concerns with color is Vision Impairement, Aging of the Eye, Behavioral and Mood Disorders. The factos that contribute to our perception of color is age, gender, culture, health, and beliefs. Color perception is imporatant in

HEALTH CARE DESIGN!

For instance, the image on the left is a healthcare area where the colors are blue and white. The blue can signify wayfiniding but blue also helps slower the heart rate in an individual. Research has shown that RED can insrease blood pressure and adrenanline. PINK settles the stomach. BLUE can slow down the heart rate. YELLOW speeds up the metabolism and SILVER heals hormonal imbalances.


CH. 8

COLOR+BALANCE


Color and Balance is IMPORTANT especially in DESIGN Light colors need to be BALANCED with dark colors, highly saturated colors need to be BALANCED with dull colors, and the intensity of colors MUST relate to one another to create a harmonious palette. Symmetry, asymmetry, and radial create a

SPATIAL BALANCE!

The success of how a color is used in a space is determined by its relation to the design concept and the architecture. There are four type of color balance that can be achieved through color application and that is, value contrast, intensity contrast, bright and dull colors, and light and dark colors. In interior design, balance is a way to create a relaxing environment and add unity to the space which creates a perfect harmony within the use of color contrast.

CH. 9 COLOR+RETAIL


Alexandre Mattiussi Hue The simple and dramatic use of the floor pattern, the forest green velvet curtains, and the silver wall creates a focal point within the retail space. The purpose is to create a sense of direction by pulling in the user.


Alexandre Mattiussi

Value The accent wall represents a disco ball which implements value within the space. The items are being reflected against the wall which creates a sense of importance to the products.


Alexandre Mattiussi Texture Mattiussi uses a mix of texture with the stone walls, marble display, and wood patterned floor. The wall and display create a smooth finish compared to the floor pattern which invites the users into the space.


Alexandre Mattiussi

Design Feature The floor pattern creates a design feature by creating a contrast which emphasizes the interior space. The neautral and black tones add a flowing movement and give the space timeless charm and personality.


Alexandre Mattiussi Focal Point

The monumental paracord artwork was created by Jessy Nite for Mattiussi which reads, “MEET ME THERE IN THE OPEN AIR.” This feature receives the greatest visual emphasis in the room. This feature draws the users eyes to the center of composition.


CH. 10

COLOR+WORKPLACE


Color Palette Clayton Korte refurbished this 1960 building into a design firm which is located in Texas. The interior space consists of neutral tones with a pop off green from the vegetation and the blues from the furniture and art. The neutral tones and light colors give a perfect balance within the space.


Psycological + Health Benefit Korte focused on creating the windows bigger for natural lighting. Natural lighting helps a user focus. The offices were created with a free-flowing circulation giving the user a comfortable space to work in. The wood tones enhances the users well-being and relieves mental fatigue, reduces stress, and decreased blood-pressure and heart rates.


Color + Line This office shows the perfect example of color and line. The neautral tone, green, and natural lighting helps the user focus on their work. The black trim is placed in a horizontal form which creates the effect of the wide space and horizontal lines are restful and reminds the user of a body at rest.


Focal Point The focal point of the office is the staircase. The stair case was made of oak wood with steal stringer, and exposed weld joints. The first floor has exposed concrete floors which helps the stairs case become the focal point which catches the users eyes. There is also an accent wall created with wood which creates a contrast and adds interest to the space.
