International Gothic Palette 19

Palette Analysis

International Gothic distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. At 27.9%, #100C0D functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. The saturated accent, #B87629, registers at 5.3% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. The full value range is 56 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form.
