🎨 Color Blender
Online color blending tool that mixes two colors in different ratios. Supports HEX and RGB input with real-time preview of blend results and intermediate steps. Perfect for palette design and color learning.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does color blending work? What blend modes are supported?
Two algorithms: â‘ RGB Linear Interpolation: linearly interpolates R, G, B channels between two colors; â‘¡ Lab Color Interpolation: converts to Lab color space for interpolation that matches human perception more naturally. Default is RGB mode; switch to Lab in settings for more natural blends.
What color input formats are supported?
Three input methods: â‘ Visual color picker; â‘¡ HEX format (e.g., #FF5500); â‘¢ RGB format (e.g., rgb(255,85,0)). Input boxes parse in real-time - any valid color value auto-updates the preview.
What output formats are available?
Blend results can be copied as HEX, RGB, or CSS variable format. Intermediate color steps (stepping values) are displayed in a list for easy copying into CSS gradients or design systems.
What are real-world uses for color blending?
Common applications: â‘ Brand color system design - blend primary and secondary colors; â‘¡ Gradient design through multi-step blending; â‘¢ Design system token generation for light/dark variants; â‘£ Color theory education - visually demonstrates blending principles.
