Color Palette Generator

What is a Color Palette Generator?

A color palette generator creates harmonious sets of colors based on color theory principles. It helps designers choose colors that work well together for cohesive designs.

Color harmony types include:

• Complementary: Colors opposite on the color wheel
• Analogous: Colors adjacent on the color wheel
• Triadic: Three colors equally spaced
• Split-Complementary: Base color plus two adjacent to complement
• Tetradic: Four colors in two complementary pairs
• Monochromatic: Variations of a single color
