Understanding the impact of material choice and lighting in exhibition spaces is crucial for enhancing visitor experience and emotional engagement. This study explores the influence of material, lighting color temperature, and lighting type on emotional responses in exhibition environments. Utilizing four materials (marble, metal, wood, plaster) and combinations of two lighting color temperatures (3500K, 5000K) and two lighting types (diffuse, spotlight), 16 virtual exhibition spaces were create

This study investigates how spatialization strategies shape literary immersion in virtual reality (VR). While immersive media have been widely adopted in education, healthcare, and cultural content, research on literary VR has largely attributed immersion to the medium itself, leaving the role of spatial design insufficiently examined. To address this gap, the study explores how spatialization strategies influence user experience when literary texts are translated into virtual environments, with

This study examined the effects of stage lighting color combinations and placement on audience spatial perception and emotional responses. A virtual stage was constructed based on an existing musical theater, and four lighting colors—red, yellow, green, and blue—were combined into six two-color combinations. Each combination was arranged by varying the placement of the two colors as key light and back light, resulting in twelve lighting conditions. A total of 100 participants experienced six ran

Exposed concrete is widely used in commercial spaces for its aesthetic appeal, durability, and energy efficiency, yet it is often perceived as cold and uninviting in residential settings. This study explores design strategies to improve emotional perceptions of exposed concrete in residential spaces by examining the effects of surface color and texture image. Virtual residential environments were created by combining two surface colors (warm and cool) and two textures (rough and smooth). A total
