The Light & Colour Group at NTNU is established at the De-
partment of Architectural Design, Form and Colour Studies.
It consists of architects, interior architects, physicists and artists.
This diverse group of professionals contributes to a working
atmosphere where research has crucial multidisciplinary input.
The Light & Colour Group has developed contacts with a
number of academic institutions and companies in and outside
Norway, which gives the advantage of a broad interdisciplinary
scientific network as well as a close connection to architectural
practice.
The research conducted within the group involves daylight,
artificial light, colour, physics of light and colour, visual percep-
tion, , light and health, colour consulting, architectural colour and
related fine art. Most of the research addresses questions with
direct application in architecture.
In order to conduct rigorous scientific research, the group has
developed two high quality laboratories: ROMLAB and Daylight
Laboratory. Both these important assets are internationally
rather unique, as there exist only very few well equipped lighting
laboratories around the world.
The group members are involved in education on all levels in
courses arranged for students of architecture, for other students
at NTNU and for different groups of practitioners. In this the
two laboratories are frequently used.
