COLOUR CODES
still life
The work of Raw Color reflects a sophisticated treatment of material and colour by mixing the fields of graphic design and photography.This is embodied through research and experiments, building their visual language.
Daniera ter Haar & Christoph Brach work on self initiated and commissioned projects in their Eindhoven based studio. With the series of still life’s, they try to capture the characteristics and associations of certain color shades. For example, reddish is represented as tensed, explosive and dynamic, skin shades are shown by softness and purity.
The used objects are part of their inspiration archive that is permanently growing through the years. Raw Color created the images for the New York based online design magazine ‘Sight Unseen’.
After a studio visit and a long chat they decided to make a photoseries that visualises their approach and fascination about colours, materials and their character.
