Colour Perception in Camper Van Interior Design Using Virtual Reality Technology

Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) technology has been developing progressively and rapidly in the past decades. VR technology is used to create 3D models of rooms and spaces, which can be used to create more accurate and detailed designs. Colours used in interior design have the ability to create specific moods, create harmony, and change the perception of how large or small a space may look or feel. The purpose of this study is to explore the application of virtual reality technology in the interior design of a camper van considering the role of colour perception. We aim to determine the effect of colour on the interior design creating professional-looking 3D camper van layout. The results show that any non-professional in 3D design can design a functional and comfortable living space in the camper van using Vanspace 3D software. It was found that light colours and shades create the feeling of space, light, comfort and cosiness. When choosing colours for the interior design of a small limited space, as is the case with a camper van, it is advisable to combine warm earth colours, white and beige colours.
