Abstract
One of the significant bases for perceiving the environment is visual feeling; in this case, the colors are considered the first component, which is perceived together with form and shape. Using and arranging colors in urban spaces is particularly important. It is considered that design and the significant application of color in urban areas are influential principles that affect people's behavior and improve their interaction and participation in the place. In this study, the importance of doing research in local societies was addressed by using a descriptive-analytical method and focusing on the issue of color as a necessity in creating urban spaces; to achieve this aim. The use of color in urban areas was reviewed based on the recognized color scales, the examples of global experiences, and the color position in creating urban placemaking. The results show that the proper use of color in urban spaces is influential in cities' readability, harmony, dynamism, and vitality. Public participation and the presence of local communities also play an essential role in implementing the urban plans using color, which is a crucial factor in establishing the interactions between people and urban spaces.
