dc.description.abstract	In this report the author sets out to test the hypothesis; that colour is a neglected consideration in western architecture, and if supported, to provide explanation as to why this has occurred. It establishes that and examines why colour has been isolated as a separate and neglected element in the design process. The timeframe for this investigation dates from the Renaissance to the 20th Century, and refers to antiquity in the development of the argument The method that I have selected for this investigation is a literature search. In particular the examination of the essay by Georges Roque, Writing/Drawing/Colour, to specifically interrogate the historical conventions that inform the disciplines of architecture and the arts.	en_NZ
