The idea is only the beginning.
A color, photo, or pattern gives you a place to start. These tools help you choose glass, plan where it goes, and review what you’ll need before ordering.
Palette and Template Studio make it easier to choose colors and plan stained glass projects. Use either one on its own, or bring a saved Palette into Template Studio when your project needs both.

Palette and Template Studio solve different parts of project planning. Choose the one that matches the decision in front of you.
01Palette
Full Delphi glass catalogPalette
Start with a color. End with real glass.
Sample a color from a photo, enter one directly, or browse the catalog. Palette ranks visually close Delphi products and keeps exact product choices together in one working palette.
- Compare sheets, frit, rods, tile, and specialty glass.
- Browse by compatibility family, manufacturer, form, and opacity.
- See visual matches alongside exact Delphi product and size choices.
- Save, export, reopen, and review a project palette.

02Template Studio
Sheet glass onlyTemplate Studio
Turn line art into a glass plan.
Upload a stained glass pattern, detect its closed pieces, build a Delphi sheet glass palette, and assign colors before reviewing quantities and exports.
- Work from SVG, PDF, PNG, JPG, or WebP artwork.
- Detect, inspect, include, or exclude individual pattern pieces.
- Assign current Delphi sheet products by color and project letter.
- Review estimated area, quantities, order choices, and project exports.
Area estimates support planning; they do not validate a cutting layout.

Share the color plan.
A Palette file keeps the colors and exact product selections together so the next person can review or continue the same plan.
Share the complete project.
A Template Studio file carries the Template image, dimensions, detected pieces, assignments, Palette, and active glass choices.
A practical project workflow
Move from inspiration to a reviewable glass plan.
Use one app for a focused task, or carry a saved palette into the next stage when your project needs both.
PalettePull a glass palette from the photograph.
Sample colors from a photo, enter them directly, or browse the catalog to build a working Palette.
Template StudioCarry those exact glasses into the pattern.
Bring the saved Palette into Template Studio with its Delphi glass selections intact.
Step 03 · ReviewReview the project before it reaches the cart.
Delphi Cart Review connects the finished pattern to exact products and estimated quantities, including piece counts, project area, and the planning allowance for each glass.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions.
Do I need to use both apps?
No. Use Palette when your main question is color and product selection. Use Template Studio when you need to assign sheet glass to pattern pieces. Use both only when the project benefits from both steps.
Can I move a palette between them?
Yes. Download a readable .palette.json file and import it into the other app. The exact Delphi product information travels with resolved selections.
Does Template Studio create a cutting layout?
No. It estimates area and quantities from the pattern pieces. It does not nest pieces on sheets or prove that every piece can be cut from a particular layout.
Which devices work best?
Palette works across modern desktop, tablet, and phone browsers. Template Studio is designed for the larger working area of a desktop or tablet; phones can open the site, but the full editing workspace requires a larger screen.
What happens to my photos and pattern files?
Your project photos and pattern files stay in your browser for the core Palette and Template Studio workflows. Browser saves stay on this device unless you download a portable project file. Read the Privacy notice for details.
How do I back up or move a project?
Download a project file for a durable backup or to move your work to another device.
Does the toolkit use or train AI models?
No. Palette and Template Studio do not use or train AI models. Your photos and pattern files stay in your browser during the core workflows.
What happens before continuing to Delphi?
Cart Review checks exact product identity, available sizes, quantities, and unresolved selections. A project with an unresolved Delphi choice is blocked rather than partially handed off.
