The 4th International Architectural Paint Research Conference in 2010 illustrated the developing maturity of a discipline confident in its position within the heritage sector. Specialists in the field discussed �Moving the Profession Forward�, �The Public Face of APR� and �Decision Making: Communication with Clients and Heritage Bodies�. The papers in this conference volume explore the organisational and financial context in which architectural paint research is practiced, the application of research findings to interpretation and the paint researcher�s role in the decision-making process.
