Cándido López is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Cándido López builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. 39.3% of the palette belongs to #BDBCBF, a concentration that makes it the unmistakable visual centre. Only 2.5% is devoted to #7A352B, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 55 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. In the context of Cándido López's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
