Constructivism keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm and cool tones are held in careful balance - neither family dominates, creating tension and resolution simultaneously. Colours are neither washed out nor blazing; they occupy the productive middle ground of the chroma scale. #EEDEBB delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.2% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The palette spans 52 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. Together these qualities point to the open-air Impressionist method: recording light rather than local colour.
