This article explores the perspectives on the use of Chromotherapeutic Techniques in Specialized Oncology Units, particularly at the Dr. Cupertino Arteaga National Cancer Institute, located at Santa Bárbara Hospital in Sucre, from the perspective of hospital architecture. A fundamental aspect of this research is to identify, understand, and disseminate the influence of color in creating an architectural environment that favors the care of cancer patients. Furthermore, the experience of other users who interact in these spaces, such as healthcare personnel, companions, and support staff, is considered.
