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

Fauvist artwork+
Fauvism is the style of les Fauves, a loose group of early twentieth-century modern artists whose works emphasized painterly qualities and strong color.
Only God Forgives+
This film is filled with scenes lit by neon, and those neon colors reflect heavily in the generated palettes.
Star light+
Stellar photography, auroras and other images of the night sky. Photos of the stars have a surprisingly diverse palette of greens, blues and reds.
Mao-era posters+
Chinese posters produced during the
Mao-era have surprisingly diverse color palettes - not only stark red but warm, soft colors to bring the bright accents into relief. The color design is very intentional and highly stylized, so generated colors may not match your input exactly.

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.
