Honest
Every choice explained.
How the preview picks colors: the lightest swatch becomes the page background, the darkest becomes the text, and the most vivid becomes the button. To override: tap a chip to arm it, then click any outlined part of the mockup to paint (or drag the chip there). Your arrangement is saved into this page's URL, so copying the link shares it.
Why it works
Here a single loud color does all the talking: lemon is the only saturated note, set against a run of cool, quiet grays and a chalky white. Because fog and sky share the same blue undertone, the neutrals feel deliberate rather than washed out, and the yellow lands like a highlighter stroke on a clean page. Graphite gives interfaces a softer alternative to pure black.
Built around Lemon Yellow.
