Colour, palettes and hex values
The four ways colour is decided in DecorAI, and which ones give you real, usable hex codes.
Colour reaches a generation through four different routes, and they are not equally precise. Two of them produce measured hex values you can take to a paint counter.
| Route | How precise | Gives hex values? |
|---|---|---|
| Colour scheme preset | Directional — "neutral", "earth", "bold" | No |
| Free-text description | As precise as your words | No |
| Style Transfer reference image | Follows one image closely | No |
| Moodboard palette | Measured from the real pixels of your saved images | Yes — top five colours across the board |
| Design Report palette | Measured from the generated image itself | Yes — named colours with hex codes |
How measured palettes are produced
Both the Moodboard palette and the Design Report palette are extracted on your own device by reading the actual pixels of the images, then named by the AI. Extraction is instant, free, and does not consume a generation — and because the values are measured rather than invented, they can be used as a real starting point for paint and fabric selection.
Practical workflow
- 1Collect references on a Moodboard and read its measured palette.
- 2Redesign your room from that board, so the generation uses those exact colours.
- 3Generate a Design Report on the result to get the named hex palette of the finished design.
- 4Export the report PDF and take the palette page to the paint shop.
A hex value is not a paint code. Screens, lighting and finish all shift how a colour reads — always test a real sample on the wall before buying a full tin.
