When considering the current climate of mass media and infinite scrolls, there seems to be a chromatic wave rippling through our feeds. Amid the over saturation of circulating images, three key colors appear to be trending in architectural representation. This research is a speculative attempt to frame a current moment in the complex overlap of digital data and physical matter鈥斺渇rom screen to stone鈥濃攖hrough the lens of three colors: pink, blue, and black.鹿 Most often viewed through our handheld devices, these colors may seem like a superficial subject of a (con)temporary condition, but much like form making and drawing techniques, color also defines aesthetic movements. From the Baroque to the Bauhaus, every zeitgeist carries a new color scheme based on material resources, economies, and culture.虏 Given the rise of new tools and methods of production, it may be time to once again re-evaluate color in design and ask, is color technical rather than compositional?鲁
