A colour palette generator builds a set of colours that work together — either random or as a harmony (complementary, analogous, triadic) from a base colour. Click any swatch to copy its hex code, and lock the ones you like while you reshuffle the rest.

Colour harmonies

Complementary uses opposites for contrast; analogous uses neighbours for a calm, cohesive look; triadic spaces three colours evenly for balanced vibrancy. Starting from a harmony beats picking colours at random.

FAQ

What is the difference between complementary, analogous, and triadic palettes?Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the color wheel for high contrast, analogous colors are neighbors for a harmonious blend, and triadic uses three evenly spaced hues for a balanced but lively mix. You pick the harmony and it builds the palette from your base color.

How do I keep one color and change the rest?Lock the colors you like and reshuffle, so the locked swatches stay put while the others regenerate. That lets you settle a brand color first and explore options around it.

How do I copy a color to use in my design?Click any swatch to copy its hex code straight to your clipboard, ready to paste into your CSS or design tool. The whole palette is generated in your browser.

Can I build a palette around a specific brand color?Yes. Enter your base color and choose a harmony, and the generator builds a coordinated palette around it rather than picking entirely at random. You can then lock and reshuffle to refine the rest.
