Neo-Romanticism works in the upper reaches of the value scale, creating an atmosphere of brightness and expansiveness. Warmth dominates - the palette leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. At 55.5%, #F5EEE5 functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. #B0955B functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.4%). 62 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
