Design Color Scheme From A Photograph

February 2, 2010

As a designer I find inspiration for color schemes from all over. From architecture, nature, to paintings and photographs. I’ve driven by houses with a great color scheme and thought to myself “That would make a great color scheme for a website!”.

Using Photoshop’s Filter > Pixelate > Mosaic, we can grab a photograph and find a great scheme from it! Hover the below photos to see the scheme they produce at 65 cell size. Photographs with a wide array of colors will work best.
