Yes, loge - the name only appears 'framed' by two clues, it's not in the grid.

...sorry, framed by two clue answers (the parts appearing separately in the grid).

Well if that's it, I call foul. It adds an extra layer of complication and contrivance that's quite unnecessary.

Yes, it wasn't much help - and two clue answers can provide the 2nd part of the name.

muraria, I can't see any connection between the colours and the name (or the representations) and according to the preamble they've been 'arbitrarily chosen'. Four colours for the four thematic representations.

Still making my way through this but have quite a few entered in the grid so things looking up. Can I just ask if one of the 9 letter clues ends with AED?

Hmm - i have a full grid barring the coloured squares but am now a bit stuck.

Do the additions result in real words (in at least one direction)?
With yellow, i see letters that can be added, but they then dont seem to be the same part of speech (unless the right hand yellow forms two words, whereas lh yellow only one?

blue i can see a letter than fits (in that words are made in numerous directions - but no idea how this is significant.

pink and grey i am stumped.

any gentle hints gratefully received!
