Color Harmony Rules

Complementary

Uses colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. This creates a high contrast and high impact look, perfect for making elements stand out.

Analogous

Uses colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. They usually match well and create serene and comfortable designs.

Triadic

Uses colors that are evenly spaced around the color wheel. Triadic harmonies tend to be quite vibrant, even if you use pale or unsaturated versions of your hues.

Monochromatic

Uses different shades, tints, and tones of a single base hue. It provides a cohesive, highly polished, and unified look to any design project.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I lock a specific color I like?

Hover over any color swatch you want to keep and click the lock icon (or tap it on mobile). When you generate a new palette, the locked colors will remain unchanged while the rest update to match.

How can I quickly copy color codes?

Simply click anywhere on a color swatch. The HEX code will automatically be copied to your clipboard, making it extremely fast to grab colors for your CSS, Figma, or design software.

Are these palettes accessible for UI design?

Our color theory algorithms generate mathematically harmonious colors, but you should always manually check contrast ratios for web accessibility (WCAG) when pairing these colors as text and background.

What is the difference between HEX and RGB?

HEX (Hexadecimal) is a 6-digit code primarily used in HTML/CSS for web design. RGB (Red, Green, Blue) represents the exact same color but is defined by the intensity of light for each channel on a scale of 0 to 255. Both are provided for your convenience.

How are the color palettes generated?

Our algorithm uses color theory principles to ensure the generated colors have pleasing contrast, saturation, and harmony.

Can I export the palette to CSS?

You can easily click to copy the hex codes and paste them directly into your CSS variables or Tailwind configuration.

Does it support dark mode palettes?

Yes, you can lock a dark base color and generate variations that work beautifully for dark mode interfaces.
