Palette Analysis

Gabriel von Max distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #BFB7A8 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.1%). A value spread of 66 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Gabriel von Max's complete body of work advances.
