How does the color scheme generator work?

The color scheme generator in Intero creates harmonious color palettes tailored to your room and chosen design style. Upload a room photo and the AI analyzes existing colors, lighting conditions, and the selected design aesthetic to suggest a coordinated palette of wall colors, accent tones, trim colors, and complementary shades. Each palette follows color theory principles — analogous, complementary, or triadic harmonies — adapted to interior design best practices. You can see the suggested colors applied to your actual room in the AI visualization, making it easy to judge whether a palette works before buying paint samples. The generator also considers practical factors like room size (lighter palettes for small rooms) and natural light direction (warmer tones for north-facing rooms). It produces hex codes and color names you can take directly to a paint store.
