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
A Scandinavian-coast scheme: steel blue, its haze tint and gull white share the same slightly gray temperature, like sea and sky in overcast light. Lantern yellow is deliberately muted — a lamp glow, not a highlighter — so it warms the palette without breaking its restraint. Depth carries navigation and text, and the narrow saturation range across all five swatches is what makes the set feel so composed.
Built around Steel Blue.
