Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. At 6.5%, #BB5627 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Spanning 53 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation.
