Barvna študija fasad stanovanjske soseske Zlato polje v Kr anju, 2012
Colour study of facades in Zlato polje, Kranj, 2012

Summary/Abstract: A colour study of the facades of the Zlato Polje neighbourhood in Kranj. The buildings of the Zlato polje neighborhood in Kranj, built in the fifties and early sixties, are in need of additional insulation on their external walls, and as such, we face the need for new colours for the facades. For the free-standing buildings positioned in an orthogonal grid, we attempted to find a certain type of colour that would clearly express the different spaces and atmosphere created among the buildings themselves. Although the colours would differ subtly throughout the neighbourhood, the resulting effect should be a unified whole. The architectural elements of each building were also analysed and emphasised by the scale of intensity or by contrast with the chosen pigment. Two colour combinations for the buildings were made: 1. a retained "grey-brown" version that evokes the general colour used when the buildings were constructed. 2. a more vivacious "ochre" version in an attempt to include the nearby buildings that have already been renovated with aggressive tones, while unifying the whole as much as possible.
