Values in Neoclassicism rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The palette orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #2C2620 at 25.4% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The most saturated colour, #AB7346, is reserved to 2.4% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 64 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth.
