Palette Analysis
Light floods Japonism; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. At 4.9%, #878541 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Value range is moderate at 53 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity.
