(mentor) Degree granting institution Delft University of Technology Programme Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences Project AR2A011 Date 2023-04-20 Abstract This paper studies the color application in architecture during the 20th century by Le Corbusier and Luis Barragan through a thorough analysis of case studies such as Cité Frugès, Unité d’Habitation, Casa Gilardi, and the Chapel for the Capuchinas, as well as relevant literature reviews. It then explores how color affects users’ perception of a space from a psychological aspect through Goethe’s color theory (1810) and the Ecological Valence Theory (2010). Factors that affect how people perceive color are also discussed. Finally, the paper focuses on the application of color in educational settings and discusses the impact of color. This paper aims to analyze and draw inspiration from Le Corbusier and Luis Barragan’s color application approaches to apply them in educational spaces and emphasize the importance of color in educational settings.
