Originally published in 1995, this title is a result of an interdisciplinary study in architectural theory, psychology and philosophy and the author's experience as a practicing architect. It tries to relate theories of aesthetics and recent advances in the psychology of visual perception to the practice of design.

Ralf Weber, PhD (UC Berkeley) is a Senior Research Professor of Architecture at the Faculty of Architecture, Dresden University of Technology and heads the University's Color Competency Research Center and Color Teaching Collection that functions as the nucleus for interdisciplinary studies of color in the sciences and arts.

He taught for several years at UC Berkeley before he returned to Dresden after the reunification of Germany, when he was appointed Chair for Spatial Design in Architecture from 1994 to 2019, after which he was became head of the University Color Center. He has held visiting professorships in Ankara, Kent State, Florence, Potsdam and the School of Architecture, University of Oregon, Eugene.
