Charles Louis Muller sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The chromatic peak belongs to #FEFEFD, and at 7.5% it dominates, not decorates. 79 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette is a signature: Charles Louis Muller's particular sense of value, warmth, and colour weight made legible.
