Off Kilter
Hella Jongerius has been cooking up colors for years. A limited edition series of vases for Phaidon Press explores some options.
Hella Jongerius’ Misfit Collector’s Edition vases, made in collab- oration with Royal Tichelaar Makkum, is available exclusively from Phaidon Press. Each unique vase—produced in an edition of 300—comes with a matching limited-edition Misfit book.
“Misfits are my perfection... I have been referring to the series of colors that I make as ‘Misfits,’—and it’s beginning to become part of my signature. Colors clash, alienate, are slightly off kilter. Meanwhile, other colors in the same series compensate for that or cry out for a certain expression.”—Hella Jongerius
