Franklin Carmichael Palette 7
Subdued Vellum
Subdued Held back from full expression - moderate values, restrained chroma, controlled.
Vellum Smooth pale tan - the color of prepared calf-skin vellum, warmer than parchment.
Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Franklin Carmichael its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Franklin Carmichael builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The most saturated colour, #5F682F, is reserved to 1.4% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. 56 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 7 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Franklin Carmichael's complete body of work advances.
