Why Color Palettes Matter
Color is the first thing users notice about your design. Studies show:
Color Harmony Types Explained
Analogous
Colors next to each other on the color wheel. Creates a harmonious, natural feel.
Best for: Nature themes, calm interfaces
Complementary
Colors opposite each other. Creates high contrast and energy.
Best for: Call-to-action buttons, attention-grabbing elements
Triadic
Three colors equally spaced on the wheel. Vibrant and balanced.

Split Complementary
A color plus the two colors adjacent to its complement. High contrast but less tension.
