Per Arnoldi - colour is communication

More about the book

For over a decade, celebrated Copenhagen artist Per Arnoldi has collaborated with renowned London architect Norman Foster. Arnoldi's work encompasses everything from posters of Foster's buildings to targeted color interventions in interior spaces, culminating in a comprehensive "chromatic concept" for large new structures. His color selections not only enhance the atmosphere but also provide clear navigation for users within the spaces. This book systematically documents the full range of their collaboration, featuring projects such as the Commerzbank in Frankfurt, the Reichstag in Berlin, Imperial College in London, HM Treasury in London, National Police Monument in London, Arag Tower in Düsseldorf, World Port Center in Rotterdam, and Decaux's headquarters in London. Specially taken photographs capture the unique interplay between space and color, showcasing the specific qualities of each project. Arnoldi's contributions reflect a deep understanding of how color can influence architectural experience, making this documentation an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of art and architecture.
