The Palette Book

159 colours from Sanzo Wada's classic dictionary, plus a colour matcher and one-tap export to CSS, Tailwind, SwiftUI, Procreate and more.

The Palette Book is a pocket reference to Sanzo Wada's "A Dictionary of Colour Combinations" — the 1930s Japanese colour classic that's still a go-to source for designers and artists today.

Browse all 159 colours with their name, hex, RGB and CMYK values, and explore the curated combinations they belong to. Found a colour in the wild? Use Match to pick a colour, type a hex value, or sample it straight from a photo with the built-in eyedropper, and instantly see the closest Sanzo Wada colours ranked by perceptual difference (ΔE).

Save your favourite colours and combinations for quick access, then export any palette in the format you need:

• HEX list • CSS variables • Tailwind config • SwiftUI code • JSON • Adobe Swatch Exchange (.ase) • Procreate swatches

Or share a palette as a clean image card. No account, no ads, no tracking — just a fast, offline colour reference.
