Forum’s programme will trace the evolution and impact of colour in architecture, examining its meaning across different scales\u2014from interior details and architectural solutions to its role in urban contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Colour helps to create atmosphere, affects the perception of space, shapes functional zones and emotional wellbeing, and also encodes cultural and symbolic meanings. It does not exist without light, and how light interacts with space and its surfaces can have a significant impact on the perception of colour. When creating an urban environment, colour becomes not only a design issue but also a financial and political one. And yet, although colour is one of the essential characteristics of the physical environment that creates spatial experiences, it is rarely analysed in architectural practice or academia, and the choice of colour is dictated not only by the technologies and fashions of the time but also by the affordable products offered by manufacturers. On the other hand, each person’s eye perceives colour differently, so is it really possible to have a uniform methodological approach to understanding and combining colours? What shapes colour culture and its different practices?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A wide range of experts, including architects, interior and graphic designers, historians, researchers, urban planners, and decision-makers, will explore these and other questions. Speakers include Justinas D\u016bd\u0117nas, Dr Dalia Klajumien\u0117, Inga Urbonait\u0117-Vadoklien\u0117, Virginijus Kin\u010dinaitis, Sina Hensel, studio Praktika, and Lauren Davies, Giedr\u0117 Datenyt\u0117.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
