Shademix

Shademix is the color toolkit professional designers, decorators and brand teams keep on their phone.

Sample any color from a photo, the live camera or the screen - then instantly see how it sits inside ten of the world's color systems: RAL Classic, NCS, Pantone (approximate visual equivalents), HKS and Munsell. Get the closest matches with a perceptual ΔE distance, copy the code with one tap, jump to the same hue family, or build a palette from harmonies that are perceptually tuned in OKLCH so they look as balanced as they read.

WHY DESIGNERS CHOOSE SHADEMIX

Most color apps stop at HEX/RGB. Shademix bridges screen and material - the OKLCH value your CSS needs and the RAL or Pantone code the printer or paint shop wants. The same toolkit for designers, architects, decorators, illustrators, photographers, brand strategists and anyone who has ever stood in front of a wall trying to match a swatch.
