Mid-key values give Leon Underwood its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. At 11.3%, #D7B27F carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Value range is moderate at 46 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Leon Underwood's complete body of work advances.
