Paint archive

Pick a colour. The rowat the bottom takes it.

Every coat since the 1963 survey is on file, down to the sash bars. Choose a house, then choose a colour: the drawing in the footer repaints as you go, the way the block does once a permit clears.

Grey was not a colour anybody chose. It was what the row wore because nobody had decided yet.

Restoration log

Forty eight coats,all of them on file.

The archive starts with the Colorist movement of the late sixties, when the houses stopped being grey. Four questions come up at every January meeting.

The owner brings three drawdowns to the January meeting. The Trust matches them against the paint archive and against the two houses either side, and the block votes. Nothing is approved on a photograph.

Membership

Three stamps a year,one for each survey.

Members get the commemorative sheet in the post each January, printed off the same colour cards the archive holds. Pull one out of the wallet to see the front.
