摘要

The authors ascertained the actual conditions of the color of interor elements. This study aims to clarify the color environment of the interior elements Which most people would like to have in their living rooms. Coloring of sofa, curtains and cushions in a living room were simulated on CRT display. One hundred and fifty-five subjects were allowed to make their choice out of 16,700,000 colors for coloring the interior elements by computer image processing. The results are as follows: 1) The color selection for the curtain was made on a basis that was different from that for the sofa and cushions. 2) The hue for the sofa selected by the majority of subjects was relatively close to that for the wall while the value and chroma were separated, the hue selected for the curtain was separated from that for other elements, and the color selected for the sofa was similar to that for the cushions. 3) The value for the wall apparently affected the selection of the hue and value for the curtain.
