Frequently Asked Questions

What is color harmony?

Color harmony refers to aesthetically pleasing arrangements of colors based on their relationship on the color wheel. Common schemes include complementary (opposite), analogous (adjacent), triadic (three evenly spaced), and split-complementary (opposite with two neighbors).

When should I use complementary colors?

Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the color wheel and create maximum contrast. Use them for call-to-action buttons, highlighting important elements, or anywhere you want to create visual tension and draw attention.

How do I use the generated schemes?

Click any swatch to copy its HEX value. Use the seed color as your primary color and the generated colors as accents, backgrounds, or secondary elements. Each scheme serves a different design purpose — complementary for contrast, analogous for harmony, triadic for balance.
