Color in architecture

Monthey Kindergarden / Bonnard Woeffray Architectes designed a kindergarden in Switzerland

"The facades consist of timber slats finished in an array of toy-like colours, including pink, orange, red and green. Creating contrasting ambiences that are both happy and playful, the interior is composed of a rhythmic succession of coloured floors and ceilings, with as many colours as there are units."

Visual Abstraction: process

In thesis prep II, our last assignment was to explore and represent an architectural term.  The current assignment is to create an idea map that helps explore options for thesis, techniques and work with composition. As a first basic run is my attempt at a simple display of color.  

For light and shadow, I used words and imaged to describe a path of potential ways to use light and shadow.  I derived the terms from my original image.
