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. 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
Turquoise against terracotta clay is the signature contrast of the American Southwest — cool stone set in warm adobe — and it endures because the two are near-complements with the desert's sand and bone mediating between them. Umber grounds the scheme the way dark timber grounds a whitewashed room. Turquoise is the only saturated player here, so even generous use of it stays legible against the earthen field.
Built around Turquoise.
