Color design for 3D indoor scenes is a challenging problem due to many factors that need to be balanced. Although learning from images is a commonly adopted strategy, this strategy may be more suitable for natural scenes in which objects tend to have relatively fixed colors. For interior scenes consisting mostly of man-made objects, creative yet reasonable color assignments are expected. We propose C3 Assignment}, a system providing diverse suggestions for interior color design while satisfying general global and local rules including color compatibility, color mood, contrast, and user preference. We extend these constraints from the image domain to [Formula: see text], and formulate 3D interior color design as an optimization problem. The design is accomplished in an omnidirectional manner to ensure a comfortable experience when the inhabitant observes the interior scene from possible positions and directions. We design a surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithm to efficiently solve the highly nonlinear optimization problem for interactive applications, and investigate the system performance concerning problem complexity, solver convergence, and suggestion diversity. Preliminary user studies have been conducted to validate the rule extension from 2D to 3D and to verify system usability.
