Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between complementary and analogous colors?
Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the color wheel and create strong contrast; analogous colors sit next to each other and create a harmonious, low-contrast palette.
Can I export the palette?
Copy any individual HEX code by clicking its swatch; paste the codes into your design software or CSS file.
