Color Hunt palettes are fixed: you can like them and copy them, but not change them. Real projects always need adjustments, a brand blue that is slightly off, a background that needs to be warmer, a contrast fix for small text.
In Atmos, every color is editable in a perceptually uniform color space, and every edit ripples through your shade scales while contrast values update live. If you prefer starting from something pre-made, Atmos also offers free palette templates you can import and make your own.
Browse Atmos palette templatesThe gap between a pretty palette and a usable UI palette is structure: shade scales for each color, neutral grays for text and surfaces, and semantic colors for success, warning, and danger states.
Atmos generates that structure automatically. Paste the hex codes of a palette you found, and Atmos builds perceptually uniform OKLCH scales with easing curves around them, ready for buttons, cards, and dark mode.
Try the shade generatorTrending palettes are optimized for how they look in a swatch, not for how they read as text on a background. Atmos includes a contrast checker supporting WCAG 2 and APCA, plus a vision simulator that shows your palette through different types of color blindness, so surprises surface before launch, not after.
Check contrast in AtmosFor pure browsing, Color Hunt is delightful: a fast, free, endless feed of community-curated palettes organized by trends and moods. It is perfect for moodboards, illustrations, presentations, and those moments when you just need a spark.
When the spark needs to become a product palette, with shades, accessibility, and tokens, that is Atmos territory. A popular workflow: find a palette you love on Color Hunt, paste its hex codes into Atmos, and build the real system from there.

Just bought a lifetime license for Atmos because it is just sooo good for creating perceptually uniform color palettes – including a shade generator, a contrast checker, OKLCH support, CSS export, a Figma plugin, online sharing, and, and… 😍 👉 atmos.style (No affiliation, just genuine excitement! 😁)

another amazing tool for creating color scales in LCH.

My new favorite is atmos.style, which works exactly as I expect, with access to OKLCH color space, P3 color gamut, and visual controls with curves and all the stuff you'd need to create something nice! 💖

I like working in @atmos_style. Adding all of the variables and quickly selecting a swatch to key off of for contrast is fast.

hue-shifting on atmos is like a drug :)

Color Hunt is a curated gallery for discovering palettes. Atmos is a toolbox for creating and refining UI palettes: it generates shade scales in OKLCH, checks contrast with WCAG 2 and APCA, simulates color blindness, tracks version history, and exports to CSS, Tailwind, Style Dictionary, and Figma.
No. Atmos generates a professional palette structure from a single primary color, so beginners get a solid system out of the box while experienced designers can fine-tune every curve and step.
