Palette Analysis

Sanyu is high in key: pale, luminous, and filled with optical air. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. At 43.3%, #E0CFB4 functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. #DD4540 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.5%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 62 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Sanyu's complete body of work advances.
