Frequently asked questions
What are color harmony schemes?
They're relationships on the color wheel: complementary (opposite), analogous (adjacent), triadic (evenly spaced three), tetradic (two complementary pairs) and monochromatic (one hue, varied lightness).
Which scheme should I use?
Analogous and monochromatic feel calm and cohesive; complementary and triadic give vibrant contrast. Pick based on the mood you want.
Can I copy the colors for code?
Yes. Click a swatch to copy its HEX value, ready to paste into CSS or a design tool.
Is anything uploaded?
No. Palettes are generated locally in your browser.
