How the preview picks colors: the lightest swatch becomes the page background, the darkest becomes the text, and the most vivid becomes the button. Drag a chip onto any part of the mockup to override it — your arrangement is saved into this page's URL, so copying the link shares it.

Why it works

Coral against teal is a true complementary pair, and this palette manages the clash by keeping only coral at full saturation while lagoon sits slightly muted and one step darker. Foam and shell provide two light neutrals — one cool, one warm — so either side of the temperature split has a resting background. Navy depth handles text, where a teal-black would have felt murky.

Built around Coral.
