Color Palette Generator
Generate harmonic color palettes for your design projects.
Color harmonies explained
Color theory uses the color wheel to define combinations that work well visually. Complementary colors sit on opposite sides of the wheel and create high contrast, ideal for highlighting elements like call-to-action buttons. Analogous colors sit next to each other on the wheel and produce harmonious, soft combinations, common in calm interfaces.
A triadic palette uses three evenly spaced colors on the wheel, offering vibrant contrast while keeping visual balance — often used in brand identity. A monochromatic palette varies only the brightness and saturation of a single base color, creating an elegant, cohesive composition frequent in minimalist designs.
Frequently asked questions
Which color harmony should I choose for my project?
It depends on the goal: complementary for contrast and highlights (buttons, alerts), analogous for a calm, cohesive feel, triadic for vibrant, balanced brand identity, and monochromatic for a minimalist, elegant look.
Do the generated colors work in CSS and design tools?
Yes, the generated hex color codes are compatible with CSS, Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, and virtually any design or development tool that accepts standard color values.
