Values in cityscape rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The palette orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #CDC2A2 delivers the chromatic peak at only 2.5% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 59 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth.
