How Are Color Palettes Built?
Pick a base color and the tool derives harmonies from its position on the color wheel: complementary (opposite, +180°), analogous (neighbors, ±30°), triadic (evenly spaced, ±120°), split-complementary (±150°) and a monochromatic scale of lighter and darker steps of the same hue.
Click any swatch to copy its hex code. A practical recipe: use the base for ~60% of the design, an analogous tone for 30% and the complementary as a 10% accent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which harmony should I choose?
Analogous palettes feel calm and cohesive; complementary gives maximum contrast for calls-to-action; triadic is vivid but balanced. Monochromatic is the safest for interfaces — one hue, several lightness steps.
How do I copy a color?
Click the swatch — its hex code is copied to your clipboard and a confirmation appears.
Are the palettes accessible?
Harmony does not guarantee contrast. For text over color, verify a WCAG contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 with a contrast checker before shipping.
