Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Assumed First Edition. 168 Pages .For many years before I became a therapist, I was a professional designer. As a basic design element, color has been as familiar to me as a hammer is to a carpenter. Later in graduate school, I often wondered why there was so little interest by therapists in human color response when its psychological impact is so well-known and documented. Designers may be more aware, at least intuitively, than psychologists of human color response. There is an important exception to this professional obliviousness; and it can be found at institutions caring for the mentally ill and at correctional institutions. Even there, the use of color does not extend much beyond its purpose to help establish control in the environment. However, these institutions have become very sophisticated in understanding the environmental consequences of color choices. One of my last design projects before returning to school was to redesign the color environment at a treatment facility in Houston for emotionally disturbed children using the principles of human response to color. As an example of how powerfully color can affect the psyche, we painted the treatment rooms at the center with Baker-Miller pink, a kind of dusty pink with some blue added. Within ten minutes of entering the room, formerly disruptive children would curl up into the fetal position. Codice articolo 21682
