Theodore Poulakis sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #B95C17 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.7%). The full value range is 57 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. These proportions encode Theodore Poulakis's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
