HSV Color Picker
Pick a colour by hue, saturation and value (brightness) — the most intuitive way to choose a shade — and read its HSV, HEX, RGB, HSL and CMYK codes. Copy any format in one click.
A colour picker lets you choose any colour and read its codes — HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV and CMYK. Drag on the palette below, sample a pixel from your screen, or hit random — then copy any format in one click.
Our color tools run on our own catalogue of 26,000+ real paint colors across 16 brands — Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, Behr, Dulux, RAL and more — with the color math (HSL and CIELAB matching) computed in-house, not scraped from summaries. Every color you pick maps to a real, buyable paint with its code, so what you see here you can actually take to the store. We review and update these tools and their data regularly.

What is HSV?+
HSV stands for Hue, Saturation and Value (brightness). The palette here is an HSV picker: hue along the bar, saturation left-to-right and value top-to-bottom. It's the most intuitive way to pick a shade.
Can I pick a colour from my screen?+
Yes — use the eyedropper button to sample any pixel on screen (supported in Chrome and Edge). You can also pick from a photo with the image colour picker.
How do I copy a colour code?+
Pick a colour on the palette, then click any format below — HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV or CMYK — to copy it to your clipboard.
Does the picker show matching paint?+
Yes — under the codes it shows the nearest real paint across 16 brands (Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, Behr, Dulux and more) with its code, so you can buy the colour.
