Japonism distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues deployed as the palette's primary energy. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. At 28.1%, #231E1F functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. The most saturated colour, #A89A51, is reserved to 4.2% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The value range spans 61 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy.
