Palette Analysis

Else Berg occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Else Berg orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 9.5% is devoted to #DACCB9, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 59 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. These proportions encode Else Berg's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
