🎨 Themes

Name Description
🗻 Fuji Deep night blues and cool grays with crisp whites, inspired by Fujisan under moonlight. Calm and contemplative—amber accents add warmth and readable contrast without breaking the nocturnal mood.
🌸 Sakura Soft pinks, muted lilacs, and warm beiges on a dark base, evoking sakura at dusk. Gentle, airy accents and low-contrast highlights create a delicate, tranquil environment.
🍵 Matcha Rich tatami greens, bamboo-inspired golds, and ceramic neutrals drawn from chanoyu. Earthy midtones and subtle highlights—plus references to washi and raku—aim for a balanced, grounded palette that reduces eye fatigue.
🍁 Momiji Warm reds, burnt oranges, and deep browns inspired by momiji. High-contrast highlights in gold and amber bring clarity while preserving a cozy, seasonal warmth.
⛩️ Shrine Deep blacks and vermilion reds anchored by warm gold and soft beige. Dramatic and ceremonial — mossy greens and muted browns offer grounding accents that recall timber gates, torii, stone lanterns, and jinja interiors. Ideal for high-contrast, traditional palettes with a bold, reverent feel.
🎍 Wabi-Sabi Earthy beiges, muted browns, and soft sage greens on a very dark base, inspired by wabi-sabi aesthetics. Subtle, imperfect tones and restrained highlights create a warm, meditative workspace.
