Create a free proportional color palette from an image

Explore the most prevalent colors in a photo at achromaticrealm.com/colors-from-images


Create a unique color palette from a photo through analysis of the most prevalent color pixels in an image. Instantly capture up to fifteen colors with a palette that recognizes the proportions of each color within the picture. View hues based on their calmness score or color group for deeper visual insights.



If you try to extract a color palette from achromatic artwork, you'll end up with something like this:

Monochrome pie chart with five segments in shades of gray. Right side legend lists colors: #FEFEFE, #1B1B1B, #C8C8C8, #515151, #8C8C8C.

Black, white, and gray palettes get straight to the point. They don't risk clashing, causing an emotional response, or being misinterpreted. It's pure form, ready for you're imagination to fill in the gaps. There's sophistication in how the neutrality serves as a vessel for ideas.


But if you choose to make a color palette from a painting of an abstract color wheel, the results will be more like this:

Pie chart displaying dominant colors with a small abstract art image above. Text reads "Clustered Dominant Colors & Insights."

By isolating the colors in the artwork, we can see how dominant each hue is in the palette. If we want to narrow our view of particular shades, we can click the hex codes on the right to remove unwanted colors from the chart. It's an easy and playful way to explore colors.

Graph displays color data. Top: scatter plot showing calmness vs arousal scores with warm and cool colors. Bottom: bar chart of color dominance.

Adjusting the number of colors to be extracted from the image can slightly shift the results. Here we can see colors graphed by their calmness and color group. This is particularly useful for making visually impactful designs, or even just getting a broader analysis of the image you uploaded.


Get inspired with the analysis of colors in any image.


The potential uses are endless

Whether you're looking to generate a color palette from a photo of your favorite flower, piece of art, or product, there's hues awaiting your exploration.
