Frequently Asked Questions

How are these specific colors chosen? ▾

The mathematical relationships are mapped out on the traditional color wheel. For example, complementary colors are located directly opposite to each other, creating high visual contrast, while analogous colors sit adjacently, offering smooth blending.

What is a monochromatic palette? ▾

A monochromatic scheme takes a single base hue and algorithmically adjusts only the saturation and lightness values. This guarantees a safe, beautifully consistent, and professional look across an entire brand layout.

How do I export the color codes? ▾

Hover over any newly generated color swatch and click it to instantly copy either its exact HEX code or programmatic HSL value directly to your clipboard for rapid prototyping.
