Builder's Palette
by opaleq
Builder's Palette, by opaleq, adds a large set of decoration blocks such as brick variants, road marking blocks, wood styles and terracotta designs, with full sets of stairs, slabs and walls.
What it does
The blocks are meant to match the look of vanilla Minecraft, so they can be mixed into existing builds without changing how the game works. Creative builders and map makers can use them for medieval towns, modern cities, fantasy worlds and detailed survival bases. The mod does not alter game mechanics, it only expands the block selection.
Installation requires the mod on both the client and the server, because the environment is client and server. Builder's Palette is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 14 release versions, 1.14.4 – 26.2, and is released under a custom license that is not open source. Its first file came out on 2024-10-18 and the latest one on 2026-08-12.
