| Abstract: | In this article the used of the colordynamic planning method is described and applied as an example to the façade of a building in Buda. The method of colordynamic planning consists of 3 essential parts. In the first part we decide on the limits of the color range to be used, based upon the requirements of the subject of planning. The decision on these limits is closely linked to the coordinates of the Coloroid system. In the second part the planner creates harmonic color scales from the previously selected color range. In this work he is helped by rules of the Coloroid system, based on harmony thresholds. In the third part the planner selects the color harmony combinations considered suitable by him. Following that, he finalizes the Coloroid coordinates of the proposed colors most suitable for the project. For the presentation of the colordynamic planning method, based on the Coloroid system, we use a real database of a colordynamic plan, which was awarded the first prize in an international competition. |
