RANGE
IIES:
In one study Wells asked 70 peo-
ehow they felt about a small patch
color and then, how they felt about
the same color painted in an office.
Previous information would have
predicted the same response to the
small swatch as the entire office, but
Wells found that reactions to the
same color can change.
“It’s no different from trying to
pick out colors for your house,” he
said. “Often the sample looks fine,
but the entire wall in the same color
can be devastating.”
The study showed that the largest
difference comes from small pieces
of red material which were viewed as
masculine, vibrant and stimulating,
to large rooms of red which were
described as feminine, vulgar and
closed in. Significant changes were
found also for blue and gray.
In the past, architects and en
vironmental designers have chosen
colors without thinking about the
effect on the user, Wells said, adding
that sociologists and psychologists
are beginning to have a strong influ
ence on how architects perceive
their work.
