Everything a Palette Generator Should Be

Beyond random color combos — real color science, professional-grade controls.

6 Color Harmony Modes

Every palette is mathematically derived from color theory. Switch harmony modes to instantly change the emotional tone of your palette without starting over.

  • Complementary — opposite hues for maximum contrast
  • Analogous — adjacent hues for soft, natural feel
  • Triadic — three evenly spaced hues, vibrant & balanced
  • Tetradic — four hues, full-spectrum richness
  • Split-Complementary — contrast with less tension
  • Monochromatic — one hue, many lightness levels
