When considering a new color scheme for your next design project, custom color palettes are a great place to start. Using Apple’s Color Picker, you can manually create new color swatch lists, install pre-made custom color palettes from several sources on the web. All the downloads are provided below.
While we use Artboard® to add new custom palettes, this tutorial works with any app that uses the Apple Color Picker to pick colors for graphics and fonts. Here’s how…
Click the Color Picker icon in the Artboard toolbar.
In the Color Picker, click on the third tab ‘Color Palettes’. Color lists are presented from a drop-down palette menu. There are a few default color palette lists, including “Apple” and “Web Safe Colors.”
Step 1 – Download a Color Palette from your favorite source (as shown below) and Unzip the .clr files.
Step 2 – In Finder, hold the Option
-key and choose Go > Library from the main menu. Place unzipped files in the following folder: ~/Library/Colors/ (where ~ is the user’s Home folder)
Step 3 – Re-launch Artboard. Open the Colors Panel, click on the third tab ‘color palettes’, and your newly added Color Palette will be available from the drop-down list.
While creating your own color swatches is useful, you can also add Color Palettes shared by others. For example, there are user-created color libraries on the web. Here are 12 awesome Color Palettes you can download and enjoy.
“Material” is a color palette designed by Google that makes color easy. A downloadable Color Swatches file is available below from Mapdiva.

Google suggests using the colors as the primary colors in your app and the other colors as accents colors (watch the video).

The strength of the Color Palettes is that you can make your own swatch sets. This is an excellent way to put a consistent set of colors at your fingertips. Additionally, color palettes created here can be shared with others and are available in all other applications that use the Colors Picker (Bonus!).
To create your own color list, do the following:
Step 1 – Click on the third tab ‘Color Palettes’ and then clicking on the Action Menu icon (looks like a gear) and choose ‘New’. When you do this a new palette is saved in ~/Library/Colors/ with .clr for its file extension. A new unnamed list will be opened, containing only the color currently in the color well at the bottom of the window. Rename the list using the action menu.
Step 2 – Use any color selection method to choose your colors, then drag-and-drop colors from the color well, or from a mini-well in the Swatch drawer, into the list window. Alternatively, select a color and click “+” below the list window to add it to the list. Repeat selecting colors using any method, adding colors to the list.
Step 3 – Double-click on list items to give each of the colors a meaningful name. You can easily find colors by typing part of the name into the Search field below the List window.
