Mid-key values give Guilherme de Santa-Rita its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. The highest-chroma note - #EEE29C - appears at just 1.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 69 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 1 of Guilherme de Santa-Rita's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
