Palette Analysis

Max Kurzweil distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #DCD6A6 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.6%). Value range is moderate at 54 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 2 of Max Kurzweil's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
