PARTICULAR ISSUES IN PRE-DESIGN ANALYSIS OF NOVOSIBIRSK’S LIGHT AND COLOR ENVIRONMENT

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №4 (68) December, 2019

The article considers an integrated approach to the design of the light & color urban environment of Novosibirsk. This study is timely because in contrast to the tectonic daytime image of the urban environment, its evening image can be dynamic and decorative to a varying degree, which allows the designer to embody the most daring ideas. Most often, designers strive to create a welcoming and recognizable living space regardless of the time of the day; however, methods for designing the light & color environment of a city will differ significantly depending on its climatic conditions, local culture and urban plan. Given the current trends in the light & color treatment of urban environments, we propose further details to the designing of the light & color environment for a Siberian city using Novosibirsk as an example.
