일본 노인주거복지시설 공용공간의 실내 색채에 관한 연구

Abstract

This study is conducted to investigate the residential welfare facilities for the elderly in Tokyo, Japan in order to construct a database for modeling new interior color schemes for common spaces in senior housing facilities in Korea. Because Japan became an aging society earlier than Korea, we choose the facilities in Japan to study. The hue, the value and the chroma of colors used for common spaces in the facilities, such as lobby, corridor, stairs, cafeteria, and lounge, are measured using the Munsell Color System, and the colors are classified into the main color, the sub color, and the accent color depending on the size of space. Then, for each common space, the result of measuring the color of common spaces is presented as the distribution of hues and tones. The hue, the value and the chroma of colors for each facility are also investigated. As a whole, the facilities in Japan are found to use warm colors of whitish and pale tone as main colors, and dark tone colors of R and YR are used for furniture as accent colors inside the facilities. Among the value and chroma of colors for lobby, corridor, stairs, cafeteria, and lounge, there aren't meaningfully different, but the value of the main color is higher than that of the sub color and that of the accent color, and the chroma of the main color and that of the sub color are lower than that of the accent color.
