Palette Analysis
Cubo-Expressionism sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. The highest-chroma note - #DB9D26 - appears at just 3.7%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 60 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.
