Colormind is a color scheme generator that uses deep learning. It can learn color styles from photographs, movies, and popular art.
Different datasets are loaded each day, check back tomorrow for even more color inspiration. Visit the

API
Metroid Fusion+
Colors from the Game Boy Advance title Metroid Fusion. 2d Metroid games have typically dark, muted backgrounds with bright, neon colors in the foreground for a very alien style.
Maplestory+
Colors extracted from the graphical assets of Maplestory, a 2d-sidescroller from the early 2000s. Bright, cartoony colors befitting of the game's bubbly style.
Princess Kaguya+
The Tale of the Princess Kaguya is a modern classic from Studio Ghibli. Its distinctive watercolor palette stands out among other animated works. This dataset is best used with soft pastels.
Architecture+
Photos of cityscapes and architecture have relatively mild colors, with darker blues, greys and browns as the main color components. Great for a somber, serious look.

Usage tips
If no colors are locked Colormind will generate color palettes at random.
If you have a specific starting color in mind, pick that color and lock it. The location of the color does matter, so experiment with different placements.
If you have two complementary colors, try placing them at the opposite ends of the palette. Colormind will tend to generate nice intermediate values.
If you want more variety try placing contrasting colors closer together, colormind will then tend to create triadic and other more complex color schemes.
