This article aims to study the role of coloured installation in the urban regeneration processes. The urban colour designs are fundamental for many reasons: the environmental quality and the human wellbeing, the space valorization and the wayfinding. In this focus the colour, the material and the interaction play an important role. Some of most interesting installations in the world are made by generative design and emerging technologies, in a multidisciplinary design approach. The research methodology is based on the analysis of international case studies about interactive coloured installations, to define the role of colour in relation with the urban scene. The results seem to show that emerging technologies are still hardly applied to urban installations and the role of the colour is fundamental, in particular the one of warm colours or multicolour installations.
