Atmospheric perspective is an important part of what we see everyday. It helps us determine depth and judge distance of buildings, mountains, etc. When objects recede in space, they are affected by haze and atmosphere and become light, have less contrast, and take on the color of the atmospheric surroundings (blue, brown, etc.) This type of perspective is a powerhouse when incorporated in design because it gives the scene believable depth. :)

The basic rule is:
Close = Dark
Far = Light
