Palette Analysis

Carl Fredrik Hill sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Carl Fredrik Hill tilts toward cool - blues and silver-greys carry the structural weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The highest-chroma note - #577619 - appears at just 3.3%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 69 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Carl Fredrik Hill's complete body of work advances.
