Generate beautiful, harmonious color palettes from a base color. Choose from complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, and monochromatic schemes. Export as CSS variables or copy individual values.
A color palette generator creates harmonious color combinations from a base color using established color theory principles. It calculates colors by rotating hues on the HSL color wheel to produce complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, and monochromatic schemes. These palettes are essential for designers creating brand identities, website themes, and visual projects that need cohesive color harmony. Our browser-based tool generates palettes instantly with CSS export support. All calculations happen locally in your browser, keeping your design choices private.
Complementary (opposite on color wheel), Analogous (adjacent colors), Triadic (three evenly spaced), Split Complementary (base + two adjacent to complement), and Monochromatic (variations of one hue).
Palettes are generated using color theory principles by rotating the hue on the HSL color wheel. Each scheme type uses specific angle offsets to create harmonious combinations.
Yes! You can copy individual color values in HEX format or export the entire palette as CSS custom properties (variables) ready to paste into your stylesheet.
Complementary generates 2, Analogous 5, Triadic 3, Split Complementary 3, and Monochromatic 5 color variations.
