Gregorio Lopes occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #CBA96F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.2%). The value range spans 64 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. In the context of Gregorio Lopes's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
