Evaluating color combinations using abstract graphics versus pictures of simulated urban settings

Öz:
Preference for ‘color combinations’ have received remarkably little empirical attention and no study compared people’s responses to ‘abstract color combinations’and ‘color combinations in urban settings’. This study aims to fill this gap andfocuses on color combinations rather than isolated colors. 22 color compositions(11 abstract graphics + 11 simulated urban settings) were created. Color compositions included analogous and complementary hues, warm and cool hues, low(5 hues) and high (10 or 11 hues) diversity color compositions. 104 participantevaluated color compositions for (1) arousal, (2) naturalness, (3) relaxation andpreference for various objects and settings including (4) clothing, (5) bathroomwalls, (6) mall indoors, (7) restaurant indoors, (8) house indoors, (9) buildingexteriors and (10) any type of object, using a 7-point bipolar scale. The resultsshowed that; (1) color compositions of abstract graphics and pictures of simulatedurban settings were rated similarly for ratings of naturalness and preference forany type of object and setting, (2) low and high diversity color compositions wererated similarly for all scales except preference for house indoors, (3) analogousand complementary color compositions were rated similarly for all scales exceptpreference for clothing, (4) warm and cool color compositions were rated similarly for all scales except preference for bathroom walls. The applied value of theseresults and areas for future research are discussed.
