3. CONCLUSION
Colour works as an environmental information tool for user’s successful wayfinding abilities [2]. It can be used as a
visual cue to help individual’s focus on a particular area of the built structure. In buildings, colour can be used to break
the monotony and different spaces can be enhanced with their colour scheme. This way, colour can help cognitive
mapping by marking varying ambiences of different spaces in a building. Colour-coding should be carefully applied
and colours should be sparsely used. Colour should not override the overall atmosphere, but instead should be a part
of the overall ambience. When landmarks are concerned, colour can help visibility of those. Colour can also help associating
a space with a particular landmark. It should be noted that memorability of colour is limited to only first and
second landmarks or prominent colours seen, so it is best to make only one or two colours dominant for wayfinding
purposes. Lastly, it is important to always remember that colour is all about materials, as all materials come with a
particular colour choice.
