Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give cloudscape its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The highest-chroma note - #836638 - appears at just 6.2%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 45 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
