Mixing wood types for visual contrast

Planning your color palette

The pack preserves each wood type's original color while adding 3D depth. This means you can combine different woods for visual interest:

• Warm woods: Oak and acacia create inviting, natural tones
• Cool woods: Birch and spruce suit modern or snowy builds
• Dark woods: Dark oak and warped provide contrast and shadows
• Nether woods: Crimson and warped add unique colors unavailable elsewhere

Creating patterns and designs

Use contrasting wood types to:

• Build striped or checkered wall patterns
• Frame doorways and windows with darker or lighter wood
• Create wooden borders around rooflines
• Design decorative floor inlays

The 3D depth enhances these patterns by adding shadow and dimension that makes them pop visually. Alternating between light and dark woods creates natural shading that emphasizes your design without requiring additional blocks. Experiment with different combinations in creative mode before committing to large builds.
