Hi Chris,
The standard is currently green; however we wanted it to be as flexible as
possible. I am sure that it would be okay to use a tan plate if you
"greened" up the edges where it would meet the other shops. The main idea
is getting together with other people and having shops that "fit" together.
We thought about making the paths brown or tan but decided to go with green
because it makes it easily for the most people to be able to build according
to the standard. Anyway, that was our thoughts.
