Colourary

Build harmonious palettes from a wheel, exact values or photos, then explore art, accessibility, UI tokens and everyday colour directions.

Colourary is a focused colour wheel and palette toolkit for artists, designers and everyday colour decisions.

Start with an interactive colour wheel, enter an exact value, or select a photo. Colourary helps you understand the result, build a harmonious palette and apply it in the context that matters to you.

CREATE WITH CONFIDENCE • Explore complementary, analogous, split-complementary, triadic and tetradic harmonies • Enter and inspect HEX, RGB, HSL and HSB values • Extract distinct colours from a photo or sample a precise area

BUILD USEFUL PALETTES • Add, edit, remove and reorder up to 12 colours • Undo your latest palette change • Save and reopen colours, palettes and colour systems

APPLY COLOUR IN CONTEXT • Art: explore artist-focused RYB relationships, value and temperature • Digital: generate tonal scales, test WCAG contrast and preview light and dark UI roles • Everyday: discover Calm, Warm, Bold and Soft colour directions with practical guidance

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Colourary requires no account. Photos are processed on your device, and your saved colours, palettes and systems remain in local storage. Colourary contains no advertising or tracking.

Whether you are planning an artwork, checking interface contrast or choosing colours for daily life, Colourary keeps colour exploration clear, practical and beautifully organised.
