Sunset — Google Calendar Palette

    Sunset mixes warm corals and ambers with a single dusk purple, like the last hour of daylight. The warm colors carry your active, social, energetic blocks while the purple anchors evening and wind-down time, giving the day a visible arc from bright to dark.

    Use Sunset in Google Calendar

    Google Calendar's built-in picker doesn't include these exact colors. With the CalPalette Chrome extension you can enter each hex code once, save the whole Sunset palette, and reuse it on any event.

    Sunset palette — FAQ

    How do I use the Sunset palette in Google Calendar?

    Install the CalPalette Chrome extension, open any event in Google Calendar, and click the "+" button next to the default colors. Enter the hex codes from this page (#FF6B6B, #C44569, #FF8E53, #FFB142, #F8A5C2, #574B90) to build the palette, then save it so every color is one click away on future events.

    Can I use these hex codes without an extension?

    Google Calendar's standard picker only offers its built-in colors, so these exact hex values aren't available natively. You can pick the closest built-in colors by eye, or use CalPalette to apply the exact hex codes.

    What categories does the Sunset palette cover?

    It maps 6 colors to common calendar categories: Energy (#FF6B6B), Work (#C44569), Social (#FF8E53), Personal (#FFB142), Self-care (#F8A5C2), Evening (#574B90). You can rename the categories to fit your own system — the colors are what matter.
