“Little did I know, when I made this decision, what I was going to see: the walls all began to take on orange hues, completely altering the appearance of the place; but that’s not even what surprised me the most.” Through a autobiographical fictional chromatic exploration, I look at the perceptive aspect of colour with a constant question in mind: through what processes does colour contribute to architectural design? This autobiographical fiction draws on the different territories of colour in order to paint a picture of the space it occupies in the architectural world as I see it today.
