Palette Analysis

Light floods Jan Sluyters; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. At 4.0%, #A18C48 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The value range of 47 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Jan Sluyters's complete body of work advances.
