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

Emerald and teal sit side by side on the wheel, and layering them recreates the iridescent shift of peacock feathers — one hue melting into the next rather than a hard contrast. Brass injects the warm metallic note that Victorian parlors used against exactly these greens, and aubergine is a moodier alternative to black that carries a violet echo of the plumage. Parchment keeps the darkness from becoming airless.

Built around Emerald.
