This Color Palette Generator creates harmonious color schemes based on established color theory principles.

Whether you are designing a website, creating a brand identity, or looking for color inspiration, this tool provides professional-grade palettes with a single click. All processing happens in your browser — your data never leaves your device.
A monochromatic scheme uses variations of a single hue — different shades, tints, and tones of the same base color. It creates a clean, elegant look that is easy on the eyes and perfect for minimalist designs.
Complementary uses colors directly opposite each other on the color wheel (high contrast). Split-complementary uses the base color plus the two colors adjacent to its complement — offering strong visual contrast with less tension than pure complementary.
Copy the CSS export and paste it into your stylesheet under the :root selector. Each color is assigned a variable like --color-primary, --color-secondary, etc. Then reference these variables in your component styles for consistent theming.
The 60-30-10 rule is a classic design guideline: use your dominant color for 60% of the space (background), a secondary color for 30% (cards, sections), and an accent color for 10% (buttons, highlights). Our UI preview helps visualize this balance.
