Nave Dark sets the weight of the palette in introspection and intuition, and Stained Blue is the swatch that breaks rank: a single blue that stops the set reading as one note. Nave Dark to Choir White spans 89 points of lightness, so the palette can carry its own hierarchy without reaching for a second one. There is nothing between 25 and 69 percent lightness, so the palette jumps from dark to light with no midtone to build a border or a divider from.
