Colouring Space in Virtual Reality: A-Chromatic and chromatic composition and color saturation affecting visual perception
Get PDFInterior design is one field that employs three-dimensional perspective presentations to illustrate space. This study investigated the variations in colour composition and saturation affecting visual impressions. The method tests the three-dimensional rendering of images through virtual reality (VR). The variables connect to the differences in room and furniture colour composition. The visual simulation test conducted on two experiments included 20 participants who replied to a group of chromatic-achromatic and achromatic-chromatic, with saturation levels ranging. The findings reveal that colour composition impacts the clarity of space, and the variation in colour saturation influences the impression of the room's depth
