marina occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Built on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #C2B99C delivers the chromatic peak at only 6.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. Value range is moderate at 52 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.
