Every choice explained.

Tap to copy + paint · drag to place

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

Cobalt against warm gallery white is a modernist staple — the blue is intense enough to function as the entire identity, so everything else stays out of its way. Tangerine is cobalt's near-complement and should appear sparingly, at maybe five percent coverage, where it vibrates without clashing. The pale wash tint gives you a quiet secondary surface, and near-black ink keeps typography sharper than the blue itself could.

Built around Cobalt Blue.
