Reason: This page is a valid aesthetic in concept, but its execution is underdeveloped. It is currently a conceptual dump that is too reliant on a single motif (moss). To be a high-quality page, the content needs to be rewritten with more robust sourcing to verify its notability, and the lists of media and music should be more tightly curated to a definitive canon.
Mosscore is an aesthetic that focuses on forest and moss related things and objects. The main focus is dark, mossy forests and sometimes things like fungi and liverworts are prevalent. The main colour scheme is mostly various, usually dark, shades of green, browns and other natural hues, and light/bright colours almost never pop up. Man made objects in this aesthetic include, but are not limited to, shacks, huts and cabins.

Fashion[]
Mosscore fashion is similar to Dark Academia and Cryptidcore, but with a comfier twist (eg, plaid pants and a skirt with oxfords and a large dark green sweater and rolled down socks.) The look is associated with forests, studying, and chaos.
