Palette Analysis

Maximilien Luce occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; Maximilien Luce favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The saturated accent, #D9CDBC, registers at 8.3% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. 54 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Maximilien Luce's complete body of work advances.
