Analogous color palette generator

Analogous palettes use colors that sit next to each other on the wheel, such as teal, blue and indigo. They feel calm, cohesive and natural, because that is how color appears in nature.

Brand kit

Give each color a role and save it as a brand kit with ready-made CSS tokens.

The generator spreads hues within about 30 degrees of the anchor color and varies lightness so the palette still has contrast for text. Analogous schemes are a safe choice for backgrounds and illustrations; add a single complementary accent if you need a button that stands out.

Private by design

PaletteKit has no server-side processing. Colors, palettes and images stay in your browser; saved palettes live in local storage on this device only.

Frequently asked questions

How many colors should an analogous palette have?

Three to five. Pick one dominant color, one supporting color and use the rest as accents and neutrals.

Is PaletteKit free?

Yes. Every tool is free with no account, no watermark and no sign-up. Copy codes and download exports as often as you like.

Are my images and colours uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Photos you extract colours from and palettes you save never leave your device.

Can I use the colours commercially?

Yes. Colours and colour codes cannot be owned by us, and anything you create is yours to use in client work, apps, print and branding.
