Color Wheel & Harmonies

The color wheel is the foundation of color theory. It organizes hues in a circle, making it easy to identify harmonious color combinations. Our interactive color wheel lets you explore complementary, analogous, triadic, and tetradic harmonies in real-time.

Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the wheel and create high-contrast, vibrant combinations. Analogous colors are adjacent and produce calm, cohesive palettes. Triadic harmonies use three equally spaced colors for balanced yet colorful designs. Tetradic (rectangular) harmonies offer the richest variety with four colors.
