This study was designed to explore the effects of color and light on indoor wayfinding and the subjective judgments of those perceiving the environment. Furthermore, how problems experienced in buildings with complex floor plans and successive spaces are addressed using variables such as color, brightness, and correlated color temperature through a desktop virtual reality environment. The experiment was conducted with the participation of 102 university students who experienced the indoor environments with various color and light variables, and evaluated these environments using concrete concepts like clear/. blurry, attractive/. unattractive, navigable/. unnavigable and inviting/. repellent. The scores for attractiveness and remembrance of warm colors were found to be higher than those for other colors, and the median scores for the positive perception of correlated color temperature were found to be higher than those concerning high and low level temperatures. However, it was confirmed that the use of warm and cool colors in indoor environments with low light levels were not taken into consideration by users of a space and were perceived negatively. Moreover, it was determined that compared to the males, females preferred high brightness levels. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

In this research aimed to determine the effects of the color type (neutral, warm, cold) arranged according to the single color harmony in the interior and equipment elements of the open offices, where people spend an important part of their lives, on the perceptual evaluations of the participants. Unlike previous studies, the color variant was used not only on the wall, but also on the reinforcements. In the study, virtual open office spaces modeled according to three different color types may have an impact on the perceptual evaluations of the participants. The research hypotheses focused on the correlation of the colors used in open offices with independent variables such as design education, gender and age. In order to test these research hypotheses, the participants were asked to evaluate the open office spaces via the questionnaire created in online form. Confidence tests were made with the SPSS program of the obtained data, percentage values, mean and standard deviation values were calculated, and the differences between the variables were analyzed. As a result, the space in which warm colors are used is perceived more positively than the spaces in which neutral and cold colors are used. In addition, the participants who did not receive design education, men and participants in the 25-35 age group made more positive evaluations than those who received design education, women and participants in the 36-45 age group.
