Alexander Koester occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 10.0% is devoted to #3A4126, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 57 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. These proportions encode Alexander Koester's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
