Palette Analysis

Values in Realism rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The saturated accent, #D4CDBB, registers at 11.4% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 57 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
