Synchromism occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. #682612 at 9.8% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. 59 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
