Lesser Ury Palette 1

Palette Analysis

Values in Lesser Ury rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #BCA381 delivers the chromatic peak at only 8.6% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 56 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. In the context of Lesser Ury's full range of palettes, group 1 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
