About Color Theory

Great design starts with great colors. This generator creates harmonious palettes based on color theory principles:

  • Complementary: Colors opposite on the color wheel — high contrast
  • Analogous: Colors next to each other — harmonious and pleasing
  • Triadic: Three evenly spaced colors — vibrant and balanced
  • Monochromatic: Variations of a single hue — clean and elegant

All colors generated in your browser. No server calls.
