Palette Analysis

Mihaly Szemler keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warmth dominates - the palette of Mihaly Szemler leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The saturated accent, #86582A, registers at 5.0% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 60 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Taken together, these qualities constitute Mihaly Szemler's chromatic voice - distinctive enough to be read across an entire body of work.
