Directions of using color in the Interior's design of smart apartments for Single-person living

Abstract

This paper explores the role of color in shaping the interior design of smallsized apartments intended for single-person living. It examines the directions for applying color in the design of compact living spaces. Three key strategies for designing the interiors of this type of housing using color are identified and described in detail: space division and zoning – using color to delineate various functional areas within the apartment, including the entrance, storage, dining area, living (guest) area, sleeping zone, and sanitary-hygienic spaces (bathroom and toilet); highlighting the composition center – creating a focal point within the apartment’s space by incorporating vibrant paintings, a massive table, a brightly colored sofa, or a bold-patterned rug; color-based accentuation – using color in the interior design to emphasize important objects and areas to ensure a safe and comfortable living environment.
