Choosing the right colours isn't just about aesthetics, it's about clarity, accessibility and impact. Whether you're designing a report, branding a business, or creating presentations, an effective colour palette ensures your work is both beautiful and inclusive.


Here are three game-changing tools to help you with your colour choices:

  • Coolors: A fast colour palette generator with thousands of options to explore. Quickly create and refine colour schemes to suit your project. (Link: https://coolors.co/).

  • Tint & Shade Generator: Need lighter or darker variations of a colour? This tool generates perfect shades and tints while letting you copy colour codes instantly. (Link: https://maketintsandshades.com/).

  • Colour Contrast Checker: Accessibility matters! This tool ensures your text is legible with proper contrast, making your designs readable for everyone. If your colours fail the check, try lighter or darker variations using Tint & Shade Generator. (Link: https://colourcontrast.cc/).


By using these tools together, you can craft palettes that are visually stunning, functional, and accessible.
