Generate beautiful, harmonious color palettes from any base color.
The Color Palette Generator helps designers, developers, and artists build cohesive color schemes instantly. Start by entering a base color as a hex code, picking from the color wheel, or uploading an image to extract its dominant colors. The tool then calculates mathematically harmonious palettes based on established color theory principles.
Choose from complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, tetradic, or monochromatic harmony rules. Each palette is generated in real time and can be fine-tuned by adjusting hue, saturation, and lightness. Every color displays its HEX, RGB, and HSL values, ready to copy directly into your CSS, design tool, or style guide.
Whether you're designing a website, creating a brand identity, or planning an interior color scheme, this tool gives you professional-grade results in seconds — no account required, completely free.
Color harmony rules are relationships on the color wheel that produce visually pleasing combinations. Complementary colors sit opposite each other (e.g., blue and orange), analogous colors are neighbors (e.g., blue, blue-green, green), and triadic colors form an equilateral triangle. These mathematical relationships ensure balanced contrast and visual interest in any design.
Yes. Click the image upload area or drag and drop any JPEG, PNG, or WebP file. The tool analyzes the image's pixel data and extracts the most prominent colors, giving you a ready-made palette inspired by photographs, artwork, or screenshots.
Click any color swatch to copy its hex code to your clipboard. You can paste this directly into CSS, Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or any design tool. For CSS custom properties, copy all colors at once and define them as variables (e.g., --primary: #E07A5F;) in your stylesheet's :root selector.
