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

Taupe and mushroom are the same gray-brown idea at two values, and that tight kinship is what makes the palette feel like one forest floor instead of five separate swatches. Moss green is the accent, but a deliberately desaturated one — it adds life at the same muted register as everything else, the way lichen sits on bark. Cream opens up breathing room and bark closes the value range for text and trim.

Built around Taupe.
