Palette Analysis

Ludwig Passini sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 10.2% is devoted to #C3AE90, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 62 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 7 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Ludwig Passini's complete body of work advances.
