Evolution of “Color” Elements in Residential Interior Design

Abstract

This paper delves into the evolution of color elements within the realm of urban residential interior design in China from 1970s. The research presented comprehensively reviews and synthesizes the various material categories, application contexts, and stylistic considerations associated with color tone in residential interiors. The examination uncovers how the application of wall, ceiling, and floor colors in Chinese urban residences has been shaped by socioeconomic progress, shifts in lifestyle, advancements in decorating technology, and the adoption of international design paradigms. Utilizing literature review and field research methods, this study delineates the evolution of color tones on interior surfaces into three distinct phases: the period of Transitional Dynamics, the era of style integration, and the trend of simplistic return, tracing these developments from the 1980s to the present. This exploration aims to elucidate the underlying principles and determinants of the evolution of light color tones, offering a novel perspective on the transformation of modern Chinese urban residential interior design that is often overlooked—the significance of color.
