This paper focuses on the relationship between spatialities and colour. It explores the concepts, methods and tools that can be employed to study this correlation. Further, it discusses how these concepts, methods and tools redefine the integration of colour as a spatial mediator through its materiality, immateriality, and ambient dimensions. The aim of this paper is to establish a theoretical framework relating to the theme of colour and spatialities, and to evaluate its relevance. The methodology is based on a literature review of research published within the last ten years by the International Colour Association (AIC) and the Color Culture and Science Journal (CCSJ). Criteria were defined to classify the literature review into three main topics: materialities, immaterialities, and ambient spaces. The diversity and complexity of the concepts, methods and tools presented in scientific papers support the idea that colour goes far beyond its aesthetic function to play significant emotional, social and ambient roles. Keywords: spatialities, colour, materialities, immaterialities, ambiances, research, methodology, design, architecture, urbanism
