Minimal styles for iPhone

Calm gradients, flat colour fields and quiet geometry — built to sit behind your icons instead of competing with them.

• Silk mesh A soft mesh gradient that pools light in one corner and falls away into shadow, with no hard edge anywhere in the frame.
• Soft horizon A low sun disc over layered horizon bands — the calm, wide-open look that leaves the middle of the screen clear for icons.
• Color strata Flat horizontal bands stacked like sediment, each one a step darker than the last. Quiet enough to disappear behind a desktop.
• Paper dunes Overlapping paper-cut ridges rolling across the frame, layered light over dark like a folded-paper landscape.
• Tonal divide One clean split across the canvas: a graded field above, a solid block of the deepest tone below.
• Quiet arches Concentric arches nested inside one another, drawn as flat alternating bands rising from the base of the frame.
• Bauhaus blocks Circles, triangles, half-discs and bars scattered on a pale ground — geometric primitives arranged with plenty of air between them.
• Sun portal Concentric rings radiating from a bright core, softening outward into the dark ground like a lit doorway.
• Soft monolith A single rounded slab standing centre-frame with a glow at its heart, casting a soft shadow onto the floor behind it.
• Corner light One diffuse light source blooming from a corner across an otherwise flat field. About as calm as a wallpaper gets.
• Contour flowPro Stacked contour lines flowing across the frame like a topographic map redrawn as soft, wide tonal bands.
• Chevron fade Nested chevrons climbing to a point at the top of the frame, alternating light and dark and fading as they widen.
• Luminous ribsPro Vertical fluted-glass ribs, each carrying its own groove shadow and hard specular line, over a graded colour field.
• Chrome pillarsPro Tall reflective columns catching a bright vertical highlight down the centre, like backlit velvet curtain folds.
• Light shaftsPro Hard-edged shafts of light fanning out from one corner across a deep, near-black ground.
• Halftone fade A print-style halftone dot grid that swells from fine to heavy across the frame, on a paper-toned ground.
• Sahara glowPro A long dune ridge lit along its crest, the light grazing the edge and dropping fast into the shaded face below.
• Velvet foldPro Deep rolling folds of fabric shaded from crest to trough, giving the flat canvas a heavy, three-dimensional drape.
• Ribbon sweepPro A wide satin ribbon sweeping diagonally across a pale ground, its curl catching a darker tone on the underside.
• Lockscreen glowPro A single wide bloom of warm light on a dark field — built to sit under lock-screen clocks and notifications without fighting them.
• Ember gridPro A faint grid of glowing points on near-black, brightest at the centre and dying out toward the edges.
• Colour panesPro Three flat colour panes divided by hard gutters of dark ground — one cut across the frame, one perpendicular through it.
• Colour vortexPro A conic sweep of colour converging on one point mid-frame, with a hard vertical seam falling from it where the sweep wraps.
• Signal columnPro A tall block anchored to one edge beside a wide open field, in the same hard-edged panel system as Colour panes.
• Corner ripplePro Flat concentric bands rising from a point below the bottom edge, palest at the core and deepening ring by ring until the top of the frame is a single field of ink.
• Disc stackPro A column of equal circles running down the centre of the frame, each overlapping the one above it and mixing a darker third colour everywhere two of them cross.
• Slat screenPro Deep vertical ribs lift into a metallic glow, with the palette’s two accent colours pooling at the lower-right corner.
• Ember flow A molten orange bloom pushes through a near-black field, with one soft sweeping shadow wrapping around its edge like smoke over an ember.
• Spectral beamsPro A few broad, softly defocused ribbons of light flowing down a near-black frame, each one a pale core with the palette’s two accent colours pushed out to either side the way a prism splits light.
• Lunar hazePro A deep, near-black field lit only at its rim: a soft warm glow behind the top edge and two dim washes, one warm and one cool, rising from the lower corners, with the middle left dark for icons.

Playful styles for iPhone

Loud shapes, bold colour and happy accidents — discs, ribbons, confetti and stripes with the volume up.

• Orbit party Translucent discs of different sizes drifting and overlapping, mixing new colours everywhere two of them cross.
• Ribbon racePro Parallel ribbons weaving across a dark ground in loose sine waves, crossing over and under one another.
• Pebble pop Fat rounded pebbles packed edge to edge, jostling for room in a bold three-colour mix.
• Confetti rain Small dashes and dots tumbling at random angles across a clean pale ground — busy up close, quiet from arm’s length.
• Candy tilt Diagonal stripes in varying widths, tilted across the frame like wrapped candy paper.
• Bead stringsPro Strings of beads in graduated sizes, looping across a deep ground and threading through each other as they go.
• Loop theoryPro Thin glowing rings overlapping in a loose chain, drawn as bright hairlines on near-black.
• Rope tilesPro A grid of quarter-circle arcs turned at random, joining edge to edge into continuous ropes that braid across the frame, with some tiles knotting at half the scale.

Organic styles for iPhone

Petals, contours, kelp, coral and ink in water — natural forms drawn as flat vector art rather than photography.

• Petal bloom Petals rotated around a single centre into a dense flower head, layered so the colours build toward the middle.
• Topo gardenPro Hand-drawn contour rings nested tightly inside one another, like a growth-ring map traced in fine line work.
• Slow waves Broad tonal waves rolling horizontally across the frame with soft shading where each swell folds over the next.
• Liquid ink A drop of ink spreading through water, its edge breaking into concentric irregular rings as it bleeds outward.
• Kelp forest Slender stalks growing up from the base of the frame, curling and tipped with small buds like a bed of seaweed.
• Coral branchesPro Branching structures forking again and again into finer and finer twigs, spreading across the frame like coral or bare winter trees.
• Glass canopyPro Translucent leaf shapes drifting and overlapping on a pale ground, layering into deeper tones where they meet.
• Sandstone flowPro A smooth eroded rock profile against an open sky gradient — one long curve, sanded down and warmly lit.
• Cell gardenPro Irregular cells packed edge to edge with a dark membrane between them, each one lit from its own centre like a leaf held up to a window.

Cosmic styles for iPhone

Eclipses, meteors, ringed planets and aurora — deep, near-black space scenes that suit dark mode and OLED screens.

• Velvet eclipse A black disc ringed by a burning corona, with fine rays flaring out into deep space around it.
• Tiny universe A ringed planet hanging in a field of scattered stars — a small, quiet piece of sky.
• Prism glow Nested triangles glowing in bright outline against darkness, stacked into a single luminous prism.
• Aurora veilPro Curtains of aurora light rippling above a dark horizon, streaked with fine vertical rays.
• Meteor night Meteors streaking on parallel diagonals across a deep night sky, each one trailing a thin fading tail.
• Event horizonPro A black hole with its accretion disc lensed into a bright ring, burning hardest where the disc passes in front.
• Solar novaPro A single brilliant star throwing long rays across the whole frame, blowing out to white at its core.
• Spiral galaxy A barred spiral seen at an angle: two arms of blue-white stars winding out of a burning core, cut by dark dust lanes and speckled with bright star-forming knots.
• Chromatic currentsPro Hundreds of luminous field lines bend around two magnetic cores, forming a deep, flowing ribbon sculpture made for a widescreen desktop.

Retro styles for iPhone

Sunbursts, checkerboard floors, neon grids and atomic starbursts — hard-edged period graphics built on symmetry rather than gradients.

• SunburstPro Wedges of two warm tones radiating from a low sun disc, with a flat band of the darkest colour cutting straight across as the ground beneath it.
• Checker floor A checkerboard floor running away to a vanishing point on the horizon, its rows packing tighter with distance under a two-tone sky.
• Atomic scatter Eight-pointed starbursts, boomerang arcs and ringed dots scattered across a pale ground with plenty of air between them, in the mid-century way.
• Neon gridPro A glowing perspective grid running to the horizon under a banded sun disc, the grid lines and the sun sharing one vanishing point on a near-black field.
• Rainbow arcsPro Nested rings of flat colour anchored to the corners of the frame and clipped by its edges, overlapping into the stacked quarter-rainbows of a seventies poster.
• Tracking lines A field of fine scanlines over a graded ground, broken by a few displaced bands that throw the two accent colours out to either side like chroma bleeding off damaged tape.
• Chrome cassettePro A large eighties cassette deck, built from hard printed panels, twin tape reels and a row of tiny controls, sitting on a dark field with a subtle paper grain.
• Pixel horizon An 8-bit landscape on a coarse pixel grid: dithered sky bands, a blocky sun, drifting clouds and three ranges of jagged snow-capped mountains, scaled up hard-edged like an old console screen.

Football styles for iPhone

Club kits, floodlit pitches and tactics boards, drawn in flat colour and set to whichever palette matches your team.

• Club kit A bold diagonal sash across a clean field, in the flat two-tone language of a football shirt.
• Floodlit pitchPro A football pitch under floodlights, mowed into stripes with the centre circle and penalty area marked out in white.
• Tactics boardPro A top-down tactics board: a marked pitch with a formation laid out in numbered dots and passing arrows between them.
• Back of the netPro A goal net stretched open around the ball a moment after it hits, the diamond mesh ballooning outward with the floodlights burning through from behind.
• Heritage stripes An old club shirt laid flat: vertical stripes, hoops or fine pinstripes in hard printed colour, finished with a ribbed collar at the top of the frame.
• Terrace tifo A packed stand holding up thousands of coloured cards that together form one giant star, chevron or banner stripe — the matchday choreography, as a mosaic.
• Scarf barsPro A close-up of a knitted supporters' scarf: blocky bars of club colour worked stitch by stitch, ending in a row of tassels.
