Color palettes can be generated based on the primary input color, and whether the desired palette should be analogous, complementary, or triadic in relation to the primary color.

Alternatively, the tool can generate expanded palettes, based on any primary and secondary color

Input colors

These palettes provide additional ways to use your primary and secondary colors. They include lighter and darker options to separate surfaces and provide colors that meet accessibility standards.

Color variations for accessibility

The Material palette generator can be used to generate a palette for any color you input. Hue, chroma, and lightness are adjusted by an algorithm that creates palettes that are usable and aesthetically pleasing.
