Neoclassicism is high-key - luminous, open, and weighted toward light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #B38652 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.6%). At 70 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
