Heywood Hardy sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. At 5.4%, #A35E31 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. 67 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 7 of Heywood Hardy's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
