Abstract

Color is related closely to human beings. Human life and habitat are full of colors. Color reflects human civilization and spiritual demands. It takes on the responsibility of embellishing life and beautifying environment. Karl Marx once said, the feel for color is the most popular form of general esthetics. With the rapid development of landscape architecture in our country, landscape architecture design has a higher and higher demand of color combination design, which means color planning in landscape design has become a typical issue.
