Original title O metodike rasčeta cvetovogo rešenija pomeščenija po ėskizu [in Russian]
Bibliographic information 1973, No.83, p.37-42. Illus. 1 ref.
Abstract The method described consists in: (1) determining the colour co-ordinates of the walls and the reflection factors of the walls, floor and ceiling with the aid of the architect's drawings; (2) calculating the colour saturation of the walls and the luminance of the floor and ceiling; (3) determining the relation between the colour saturation of the walls and the luminance of the floor and ceiling; and (4) selecting the colour saturation of the walls, their reflection factor and the reflection factors of the floor and ceiling from the chromaticity diagram in such a way that they satisfy a given equation.
