August Ahlborn keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #8B642E delivers the chromatic peak at only 7.3% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 64 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that August Ahlborn's complete body of work advances.
