Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The chromatic peak belongs to #946A3B, and at 20.0% it dominates, not decorates. At 66 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette is a signature: Hans Sterbik's particular sense of value, warmth, and colour weight made legible.
