About this project
What does Gradients Evolved add?
Your world. Your palette. Evolved.
Ever feel like vanilla blocks just don't have enough variety?
Gradients Evolved fills the gaps and bringing a rich palette of block variants built specifically for builders who want more control, more detail, and more creativity in every build just like me.
Overview
Gradients Evolved is a builder-focused mod that expands Minecraft's block palette with beautiful new variants of existing blocks. Whether you're crafting a rustic village, a towering castle, or a modern cityscape — Gradients Evolved gives you the blocks to make it happen.
Every block has been carefully designed to feel native to Minecraft — no jarring textures, no out-of-place designs. Just seamless extensions of the vanilla palette you already love (some may have a 16x16+ textures though but not all of them).
Features
New Block Variants
Dozens of new variants for existing blocks, including:
- Mossy, cracked, and weathered versions of stone-type blocks
- Chiseled and polished versions for refined builds
- Aged and worn variants for that perfect ruined aesthetic
Built for Builders
- Every variant fits naturally alongside vanilla blocks
- Consistent textures that respect Minecraft's art style
- No bloated item lists — only what builders actually need
