The foundation of a good design is a great color combination. Not all colors work well with each other and choosing one that correctly bolsters your message is an important aspect to design. Additionally, the color combination should reflect the products and services on offer and can help immensely in making or breaking a sale.
We found some simple and easy-to-use online tools to help you create color combinations. Have fun playing around with them and if you do come up with a perfect combination, do let us know – we’ll post it on our site.
Adobe Color, officially known as Adobe Kuler, is an online tool from Adobe Systems through which you can create color combinations online. It is also available in a desktop version by which you can export a color scheme straight into Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign.
Simple and easy way to create color combination with Canva‘s color wheel. It provides Color combinations of Complementary, Monochromatic, Analogous, Triadic and Tetradic etc.

Tineye Multicolr extracts colors from almost 20 million creative commons images on flickr. It’s not a true color combination creator, but will help you get images based on the color scheme you choose. For example, if you select pink and aqua, the results will show images which have only these colors, Click here to see.
Colordot by HailPixel is an awesome interactive online tool. The way you create color combinations is actually addictive! Here is what happens – moving the cursor around changes the color and you simply need to click to save it to your combination. Anyway, it’s kind of useless explaining this – you HAVE to work on it to be amazed. Also, not only are the hexadecimal color codes are displayed but one can fine tune a color too.
Designspiration is a simple tool that shows images based on your chosen color combination.
This really helpful online tool by which you can create a color combination based on your chosen color. So, if you love a shade of blue, put its hexadecimal code and get other colors that will go well with it.
