Arman Manookian sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. Only 11.6% is devoted to #E06748, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. Spanning 44 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. The palette reads as an Impressionist one - light-biased, chromatically direct, and built on temperature contrast rather than value opposition. This is palette 2 of Arman Manookian's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
