Palette Analysis

Jean Alaux distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #2E2A24 at 25.5% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. #957445 delivers the chromatic peak at only 4.2% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 61 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 4 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Jean Alaux's complete body of work advances.
