Optical immersion

Article Abstract:

The architecture of the building includes design, volume and light but the most important thing that is ignored is the color of the building. The modern architects lay a lot of stress on the color of the building, and this difference in the old and new building is clearly evident as the old buildings are generally white, creme or gray whilst the new buildings have vibrant, more attractive colors.
