Colourscape by Lancaster Michael (5 results)

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. With this invaluable handbook. Michael Lancaster seeks to clarify the place and meaning of colour in our surroundings. The complex subject matter is explored thoroughly - from the biological nature of colour and colour perception to the contemporary concerns of colour planning and colour control - to provide a solid base for the author's prime concern: the use of colour in the context of the environment. Taking examples from a wide range of townscapes and landscapes. Michael Lancaster identifies the confusion that has arisen from the recent colour revolution, and the increasing possibilities for visual pollution. Such negative examples contrast sharply with the detailed analyses of town planning in which harmony of colour and context is sought. The wealth and diversity of illustrations throughout vividly bring to life the issues raised by the author, providing readers with a highly accessible source of reference from which to reevaluate their understanding and experience of colour. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
