Jean-André Rixens keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm hues command this palette; Jean-André Rixens favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #8A5F2A - appears at just 10.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 62 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. These proportions encode Jean-André Rixens's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
