Room analysis

The color palette your room already has

Photograph a room and Frame Atelier reads the colors that are actually in it — named, with hex codes — along with an estimated wall tone, the quality of its light, and a decorating direction that follows from both. Free, no account, and the photo stays on your phone.

Start from the room, not from a mood board

Most decorating advice starts with a style name and works backward. That is why so much of it does not land: the floor you already have, the light your windows actually give you, and the wood tone of the furniture you are not replacing all outvote a mood board.

Reading the palette out of a photo of the room reverses that. You get the colors the room is already built from, in the light it is really in, and everything else — accent color, metals, what to buy — is chosen to sit alongside them.

A palette of this shape — six named regions with hex codes — is what the read returns for a room.

How to read a room’s palette

  1. Shoot the room in its normal lightDaylight for a daytime room, lamps on for an evening room. The read describes the light in the photo, so photograph the light you actually live with.
  2. Get the surfaces that matter in frameWall, floor, and the largest pieces of furniture. Colors covering less than about 1.5% of the frame are dropped as noise, so a room shot from the doorway reads better than a close-up of one corner.
  3. Skip filters and beauty modeAnything that shifts color before the photo is saved shifts the palette with it.
  4. Open Room Analysis and add the photoTap Room Analysis, then Photograph a Room or Upload a Photo, then Analyze.
  5. Read the result — and its workingPalette, lighting, estimated wall color, mood and style, plus a “Why this result” panel listing every measurement behind the call.
  6. Shop the paletteShop This Room matches decor to the colors just measured, so what you buy agrees with what the room already has.

What it measures

Nothing here is a guess dressed up as a verdict — the app shows each number it used, so you can disagree with it.

Palette
Six color regions clustered from the photo, each named, with hex codes and how much of the frame it covers
Brightness
Average lightness — airy and open, mid-level, or low and moody
Temperature
The share of pixels leaning warm; above 45% the room reads warm
Saturation
Color intensity — muted and restrained, balanced, or vivid
Contrast
Soft, low-contrast light versus defined edges and shadow
Wall color (est.)
The largest light, low-saturation region — usually the painted surface
Lighting
Whether the highlights read lamp-lit and warm or natural and daylit
Style direction
A named aesthetic, with the palette signals that produced it spelled out
The rest of the app. Room Analysis reads a photograph of a space. The same photo tools also carry editorial filters and lens correction, and the personal side reads your own color season from a selfie — which is what drives the aesthetics a room can be styled toward.
Colors on a screen are not colors on a wall. Your display, the camera, and the light the photo was taken in all shift what you see. Treat the palette as direction and confirm anything you are about to buy paint for against a physical sample.

From palette to a room you can shop

Once the palette is measured, the app builds decorating directions on top of it — each with its own colors, materials, and lighting character — and turns each one into decor you can actually buy, in categories like furniture, rugs, pillows, wall decor, lighting, curtains and bedding.

Each of those is a real palette rather than a mood — four colors with hex codes, a material vocabulary and the lighting it depends on. They are set out in full on interior colors, along with how the app decides which colors your room already has and which it is missing.

Questions

How do I get a color palette from a photo of my room?
Open Frame Atelier, tap Room Analysis, add a photo of the room, and tap Analyze. It returns six named colors with hex codes taken from the photo itself, plus the room’s brightness, warmth, saturation and contrast, an estimated wall color, and a style direction. Everything is computed in your browser — the photo is never uploaded.
Is it free?
Yes, with no account and no subscription. The app is supported by affiliate commissions on decor links, which cost you nothing extra.
How accurate is the estimated wall color?
It is an estimate, and labeled as one. It picks the largest light, low-saturation region in the photo, which is usually the painted wall — but camera white balance and room lighting both shift the value. Use it to search near that tone, not as a paint code.
Why did it choose that style for my room?
Because you can check. Every read includes a “Why this result” panel that lists the measurements behind it: which colors dominate and by how much, average brightness, the warm-pixel share, saturation, contrast, and which palette signals pushed the call one way or the other.
What kind of photo works best?
One taken from far enough back to include the wall, the floor, and the main furniture, in the light the room normally has, with no filter applied. A close-up of one corner will return that corner’s palette rather than the room’s.
Does it work on anything other than rooms?
Yes. It reads the palette, lighting and mood of any scene — a landscape, a street, a table setting — and turns it into decorating direction. It is not restricted to interiors.
