Beige Screen
Beige is white pulled slightly warm and slightly down in luminance. It approximates uncoated paper stock, which is why it is easier on the eyes for long reading than a pure white field.
What people use the beige screen for
Paper-like reading background
Pure white at full brightness is harsh in a dim room. Beige keeps the contrast for reading while cutting the glare — the same reasoning behind sepia modes in e-readers.
Warm neutral backdrop
Flatters skin and warm-toned products better than clinical white, and stays neutral enough not to cast a colour.
Gentle late-night light
Less blue-rich than white, so a beige screen is a softer light source to leave on in the evening.
How to use the beige screen
- 1Open the beige screen — it fills the page immediately, no button needed.
- 2Press F or use the fullscreen button to go edge to edge with no browser chrome.
- 3Use the brightness slider to dial the output up as a light source or down for a dark room.
- 4Move the mouse or tap once to bring the controls back; they fade out on their own after a few seconds.
- 5Press a number key or use the colour strip to jump straight to another colour.
