Values in Synthetic Cubism tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. Rather than a studied accent, #81421B takes 8.6% - a bold allocation that saturates the composition's atmosphere. 63 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
