The CSS Neumorphism Generator produces the box-shadow CSS needed to achieve soft-UI neumorphic effects — flat, pressed, concave, and convex — with a live interactive preview. Set your base colour, adjust distance, blur, and intensity, and the tool outputs clean CSS ready to drop into any project. It's designed for designers and developers who want to explore or implement neumorphic UI without hand-calculating shadow values.

  • Four shape types: flat, pressed, concave, and convex
  • Base colour picker with auto-calculated light and dark shadow colours
  • Adjustable distance, blur radius, and shadow intensity
  • Live preview and one-click CSS copy
  • UI designers exploring the neumorphic or soft-UI aesthetic
  • Front-end developers implementing neumorphic cards, buttons, or inputs
  • Students learning how layered CSS box-shadows create depth illusions
  • Prototypers who need production-ready CSS for a design system component
01Pick your base background colour — the shadows will be derived from it automatically

03Tweak distance, blur, and intensity sliders to refine the effect
04Copy the generated CSS and paste it into your stylesheet

What is neumorphism in CSS?

Neumorphism (or soft UI) is a design style that uses two layered box-shadows — one light, one dark — on an element that matches the page background, creating the illusion that the element is extruded from or pressed into the surface.

What shape types does the generator support?

The generator supports four styles: flat (raised look), pressed (sunken/clicked state), concave (inward curved surface), and convex (outward curved surface). Each is useful for different UI states like buttons, cards, and toggles.

Do I need to set a specific background colour?

Yes — neumorphism only works when the element background matches the page background. The generator lets you set the base colour, then automatically calculates the appropriate light and dark shadow colours.

Is neumorphism accessible?

Neumorphic designs can have contrast issues. The style is best used for decorative elements or supplemented with other visual cues. Always test your final design with a contrast checker before using it in production.

Can I adjust the intensity and blur of the shadows?

Yes. The generator includes controls for distance (shadow offset), blur radius, and intensity, so you can dial in anything from subtle to dramatic neumorphic effects.
