Palette Analysis

John Graham-Gilbert distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warmth dominates - the palette of John Graham-Gilbert leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. The saturated accent, #D38C44, registers at 10.0% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 59 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Taken together, these qualities constitute John Graham-Gilbert's chromatic voice - distinctive enough to be read across an entire body of work.
