What is Color Hunt?
Color Hunt is a gallery of hand-picked colour palettes made by designer Gal Shir. Each palette is a small set of matching colours shown as a simple card, and clicking a colour copies its hex code, so it is quick to move a palette into Figma, CSS or any other design tool.
You can narrow the gallery by colour, such as teal or maroon, or by mood and season, such as pastel, retro, neon, summer or wedding. Sort tabs show new palettes, the most popular of the month, the year or all time, and there is a random view for when you have no starting idea.
