Jongerius does research on **colors, textures and materials**. According to Hella, all her questions are open-ended, and all her answers provisional, taking the form of finished and semi-finished products. Through this way of working, she does not only celebrate the value of the process, but also engages the user in her investigation. Her installation based exhibition takes a deeper look at the way colors behave, exploring **shapes, materials, shadows and reflections**. ![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_05.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_05.jpg "London_Breathing Color_05.jpg") ### **THE IMPACT OF LIGHT** **Breathing Colour** was divided into separate spaces that simulated **daylight conditions** at specific times of the day – morning, noon and evening. These three phases explored the impact of changing daylight on our perception of color. Each installation included a series of three-dimensional objects as well as textiles, some of which are hand-woven while others are produced on industrial looms.  ![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_07.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_07.jpg)![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_04.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_04.jpg "London_Breathing Color_04.jpg")![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_06.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_06.jpg "London_Breathing Color_06.jpg")![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_02.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_02.jpg "London_Breathing Color_02.jpg") ![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_08.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_08.jpg)![Breathing Color](https://blog.colornavigator.net/hs-fs/hubfs/UQ/Color%20Navigator/London_Breathing%20Color_03.jpg?width=940&name=London_Breathing%20Color_03.jpg "London_Breathing Color_03.jpg") **Are you interested in our color expert's advice for your project?
