P.S.: Click on the icons in the background to reveal fun facts from the AIGA Census!

#HUEAREYOU generates a color result based on your quiz responses. Scroll to reveal a quote from a famous designer, your unique hex code, color family (people who share your top value), and more.

P.S.: Click on the swatchbook to see a breakdown of your color result based on hue, saturation and luminance.

Let’s contextualize your color result with AIGA data. Each square represents a unique hex code—some squares are larger because more people got that particular result! Scroll to reveal the diverse spectrum of people in the creative community.
