Color Schemer

Seven color harmonies from one starting color, applied to the whole document in a click, and savable straight into a brand kit.

Design Tools

Pick one color, get a palette that cannot clash, and recolor the whole design with it.

Choosing colors is the part of design where people either freeze or reach for a random generator and hope. Both are avoidable, because color harmony is geometry: pick a hue, and the colors that work with it sit at predictable angles around the wheel.

Color Schemer does that geometry for you and then does the boring part too. Give it a starting color, or let it read the colors already in your document or out of an image, and it proposes palettes built on the seven classic harmonies: analogous, complementary, split complementary, triadic, tetradic, monochromatic, and shades and tints.

The bit that saves real time is what happens next. Apply a palette and the whole document is recolored, not just a swatch panel updated. Every shape, every text layer, every fill follows the new scheme at once, so trying five palettes on a finished design costs five clicks rather than an afternoon.

And when one of them is right, push it straight into a brand kit. From then on those colors sit in every color picker on the site, in every template, in every generated image, so the decision is made once and stays made.

Frequently asked questions

No. Pick a color you like and choose a harmony by how the result looks. The theory is doing the work in the background, which is the point. If you want the reasoning, the blog has a piece on building a palette without learning color theory.

Applying a palette is an ordinary edit, so undo takes it back. The safest way to compare options is to apply one, look, undo, apply the next.

Yes. Colors that come from a brand kit stay where you put them, and any layer you do not want touched can be excluded by locking it before you apply.

Features

Seven harmonies, one starting point

Analogous, complementary, split complementary, triadic, tetradic, monochromatic, shades and tints. Pick the relationship, not the individual colors.

Features

Reads the colors you already have

Pull the starting palette out of the open document or out of any image, so a new design can inherit the colors of a photograph or a logo.

Features

Recolors the whole document

Apply a palette and every layer follows, so comparing options is a click each instead of a manual pass over the design.

Features

Writes back to the brand kit

Save the winning palette into a brand kit and it appears in every color picker, every template and every generated image afterwards.
