Color Palette Generator

⚡ Free Tool

Color Palette Generator

5-color palettes. Lock favorites, copy hex/CSS, export PNG.

How to use the Color Palette Generator

Generate a five-colour palette in one click. Choose a mood — Random, Warm, Cool, Pastel, Earthy, or the Not Just a Puzzle brand colours — lock the swatches you love, and keep generating until the rest fall into place. Copy the palette as CSS or export it as a PNG.

How it works

  1. Pick a mood, or press New Palette (or Space) for a fresh set.
  2. Lock any colour you want to keep, then generate again to replace only the unlocked ones.
  3. Press Copy CSS for code, or Export PNG for an image.

Building a palette that works

  • Lock one colour you love first, then generate around it.
  • Include a dark and a light. A palette needs contrast so text stays readable.
  • Use the 60-30-10 rule. One colour covers most of a design, one supports it, and one is a small accent.

Ways to use it
