All the Details Interior Designers Need to Know but Can Never Find

Color, Space, and Style

Alexandre Salvaterra

Cor, espaço e estilo é um guia indispensável para designers de interiores, estudantes e qualquer pessoa que esteja realizando um projeto de interiores. No mundo do design de interiores, as informações encontram-se espalhadas em inúmeras publicações inspiradoras sobre estilo, mas com pouca base sobre os princípios do design, ou em alguns poucos manuais informativos de design, mas com pouca fundamentação teórica. Cor, espaço e estilo reúne as informações e ideias essenciais para o planejamento e a execução de projetos de interiores de todas as escalas e os destila em um formato tão fácil de usar quanto de carregar. Os tópicos incluídos abrangem o planejamento e a gestão do projeto, as técnicas de representação gráfica e apresentação, o projeto e o sequenciamento dos espaços, as características das cores, os materiais, as texturas, as estampas e os motivos, a luz natural e a artificial, os sistemas construtivos, os códigos de acessibilidade e a susten ilidade. Para demonstrar como esses tópicos podem ser interpretados de modo criativo na prática, há inúmeras entrevistas com designers de interiores.
