Summary
The study introduces the 'diagram of flows' as a groundbreaking method for analyzing, projecting, and graphically expressing color in architectural design, demonstrated through its application to the Ciudad Universitaria de Caracas. This approach, developed by architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva, integrates chromaticity with spatial and temporal dimensions, offering a universal framework that assigns constructive and plastic values to color. The research highlights how this method effectively captures the dynamic interplay between color, space, and time, providing a novel tool for architectural design that bridges the gap between artistic expression and functional urban planning.
