Split complementary

Tetradic

Tetradic (rectangular) schemes use four colors arranged into two complementary pairs. They are rich schemes with lots of variation.

Square

Square color schemes are similar to tetradic, but with all four colors spaced evenly around the color wheel.

How to extract a color palette from an image

The image color picker analyzes any photo and automatically extracts the colors that appear most often, generating a palette ready for your projects. It is the fastest way to turn a photograph, a screenshot or a brand logo into a usable set of colors.

Unlike the color picker, built for when you already know the exact color you need, or the color wheel, built to explore harmonies from scratch, this tool starts from a real image: yours, a client's, or any visual reference you want to turn into a palette.

Upload an image from your device. The tool analyzes it in your own browser, nothing is uploaded to a server, and returns the dominant colors in Hex, RGB, HSL and OKLCH, ready to copy or export. From the main color you can also generate harmonies, tonal variations and check accessibility contrast, just like with the rest of Matizly tools.

It is useful whenever you want to start from a real image: keeping consistency from a product photo, building a palette from a reference image, or simply recreating a color combination you have seen in a photo.

Frequently asked questions

Upload an image from your device. The tool analyzes the image automatically and builds a palette of dominant colors, showing each code in Hex, RGB, HSL and OKLCH.

No. All analysis happens directly in your browser. Your image is not sent to or stored on any server.

By default it builds a palette with the most representative colors from the image. You can adjust the number of extracted colors to get a simpler or more detailed palette.

You can upload PNG, JPG or WEBP files from your device.

Yes. Once the palette is extracted, you can select any color as a base and automatically generate analogous, complementary, triadic and other schemes.

It helps you build a palette from a product photo, recreate the combination from a reference image, or build a coherent set of colors from existing visual material.
