Clay & Linen

Mid-Century
Open in tool →Tangerine, teal and mustard on cream — the 1960s lounge trio, one of the few retro palettes with real hue contrast.
Typewriter
Open in tool →Ink-black and ribbon-red on manila — the correspondence palette; all the vintage comes from the paper colour.
Fireside
Open in tool →Cranberry, pine and brass on a charcoal night — the holiday palette without the clichés, because the surface is cold.
Dusk Gradient
Open in tool →Orange and peach on indigo-black with a violet — the last five minutes of a sunset, as a dark mode.
