David Johnson keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The saturated accent, #CD9844, registers at 4.2% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 68 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. In the context of David Johnson's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
