Palette Analysis

Lesser Ury keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Lesser Ury builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #9E7345 delivers the chromatic peak at only 8.1% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 61 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. These proportions encode Lesser Ury's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
