  • Rainbow City: a Study in Color of Cities
    ARCHCAIRO 2007 Dr. Germin Farouk El Gohary Ain Shams University TITLE OF PAPER RAINBOW CITY: A STUDY IN COLOR OF CITIES. ABSTRACT rban Design defines the city by giving it a form, while architecture defines it by giving it a structure. But Less U obviously, and fundamentally, color has a significant impact on the over all perception of an urban environment. Color of cities is formed by complex interactions that informed and shape this perception. The color contributions to a city’s unique character and appearance. Academic studies don’t give this component as much as it deserves. For any city color can be seen in many urban features as; facades, streets, boundaries, plazas, market places and even people’s clothes. This paper looks at a perceptual view to some cities in the world, not for comparative analysis between the colorful images of the cities. Nor comparing different times in all cities and how these times change the urban perception of the city. This topic had been discussed in academic researches and books before and well known that intensity of light between different cities changes the city colors and shades. But the research is trying to explain the complex pivotal role of color in urban design and form, a specific classical and traditional color palette for cities corresponding to culture characters. Then reviewing the new color technologies in architecture specially glass and some of the recent colored façade trials that have changed the urban color palette of cities. Hoping to reach the aim of striking the realty by discovering the contemporary palette, this is created by matter technological improvement and fashion.

Celenza, Ph.D., Dr. phil. Dean Dear Friends, I am delighted to welcome you to the fiftieth anniversary meeting of NeMLA, here in Washington DC, hosted by Georgetown University. I have had the privilege of serving as Dean of Georgetown College—our College of Arts and Sciences—for almost two years. During that time, I have grown to know our rich diversity of fields. Among the College's 26 academic departments and 12 interdisciplinary programs, our work spans the natural sciences, the social sciences, the humanities, and the fine arts. And within that large group of disciplines, the College's literature and language departments play a key role. Georgetown's dedicated scholars and teachers, our robust groups of students, and our location in Washington DC: all offer unparalleled resources. I hope your stay here is fruitful for your work and that you have an enjoyable time as well. My best wishes for a productive conference. Sincerely, Christopher S. Celenza, Ph.D., Dr.phil.

While other academic conferences in the humanities are shrinking, NeMLA is growing, a testament to the fact that NeMLA remains relevant and forward thinking.
