Color theory fundamentals

The color wheel organises colors by their relationships. Understanding these relationships helps generate palettes that feel intentional.

  • Complementary: Hue ±180° (high contrast)
  • Analogous: Hue ±30–60° (harmonious)
  • Triadic: Hue ±120° (balanced)
  • 60-30-10 rule: dominant-secondary-accent
What this tool does

Generates color palettes in two modes: Harmonious (mathematically balanced colors from the HSL color wheel) and Random (fully random colors). Click any color to expand it, click any result card to copy the hex code.

Input fields explained
Mode
Harmonious generates colors that work together visually by rotating around the color wheel. Random generates six fully random hex colors.
Base color
In Harmonious mode, this is the anchor color. The other five colors are derived by shifting the hue by +30°, +60°, +180°, +210° and +240°.
💡 Tips & context
→Complementary colors are 180° apart on the wheel — they create strong contrast.
→Analogous colors are adjacent (0–60° apart) — they create harmonious, calm designs.
