Color isn't decoration. It's the whole mood system.

Every palette on this site is extracted directly from a real painting's pixels, then grouped by movement, mood, and hue — nothing here is guessed or approximated.

Pull a palette straight into brand work, packaging, or an interface — the temperature and contrast logic already did the hard part.
