In Spectrum 03, the three primary colours red, green and blue are alternately projected by 12 vertical LED light sources of different lengths. A transitable space is created by hanging white panels of different sizes that receive light from both sides. The panels are tinted with an infinite number of colours generated by mixed and additive light sources. Both the interior and exterior of the space contain practically the entire spectrum of light. This central corridor is more than eight metres long, a space where the observer discovers an infinity of colour shades, profiled by the edges of the panels where other colours are formed, making for an enhanced visual experience.

Spectrum 02 is a geometric construction of six white panels suspended in the centre of the room onto which light from three sources is projected. Each source emits one of the primary colours of light: red, green and blue. The projected light, modulated by the geometry of the object, inflects the colours and their mixtures, which are produced by addition. The three smaller square panels are each tinted with one of the secondary colours of light: magenta, cyan and yellow. The resulting colour distribution on the different panels creates a visual contrast that enhances perception.
