Palette Analysis

Francois-Marius Granet distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 10.2% is devoted to #2C220A, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 67 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Francois-Marius Granet's complete body of work advances.
