Color : The Secret Influence. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.Color : The Secret Influence

Exceptionally broad, deep, and authoritative in coverage, this integrated exploration of color and light incorporates not only the basics of color harmony and usage, but also information on the vast and often hidden ways in which color affects our everyday lives―culturally, psychologically, and physiologically. Based on well-controlled, scientific studies (which dispel the misinformation about color that has become commonplace), it spans a wide range of design areas and focuses on an understanding of the concepts of color and its application to all aspects of life including, health, aesthetics, interiors, architecture, fashion, graphics, etc.

Dr. Fehrman is a member of the International Interior Design Association (IIDA), the Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC) and the Inter-Society-Color Council (ISCC).

The Fehrmans founded PRISM (Photochromatic Research Institute for Science and Marketing) in 1990 to disseminate accurate information about color/light. Separately and together, they have written seven books and several hundred articles. Currently, they continue their color research in the area of color/light therapy and give seminars on the effects of color/light. They have been successful in reversing paralysis in one of their own dogs using color/light therapy and have also extended quality of life in cases of kidney failure in several other dogs using color/light therapy. They are now pursuing this avenue further with veterinarians and are beginning work on their next book.
