Colour to colour
Blush Pink to Eggplant gradient
Blush Pink (#e8b4b8) into Eggplant (#614051) — 26° apart on the OKLCH hue wheel. Below: the same two stops interpolated in OKLab and in OKLCH, side by side, because the difference is real and most generators never let you see it; then an eased version and a mesh, each with the worst-case contrast for white and black text. The engine's own pick for this pair is oklab — both colours are in the palette and the hue gap is small enough that the straight line stays clean.
OKLab and OKLCH, side by side
OKLab
Open in maker →A straight line through the a/b plane: the two hues meet halfway and desaturate a little at the midpoint. The safe default — it is what CSS and Tailwind default to.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #e8b4b8 0%, #614051 100%)
OKLCH (shorter hue)
Open in maker →Chroma and hue interpolate separately, so the midpoint keeps its saturation and the hue travels the short way round the wheel — richer, and it can pass through hues neither colour has.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #e8b4b8 0%, #614051 100%)
And the sRGB line most tools draw, for comparison — the number is the chroma that survives at the dullest point.
Eased and mesh
Eased (soft)
Open in maker →A cubic-bezier(.4, 0, .6, 1) mix ratio baked into 15 stops: the transition lingers on each colour and moves faster through the middle, which is what makes a gradient read as designed rather than default.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #e8b4b8 0%, #e6b2b6 8.28%, #e0adb2 16.03%, #d7a5ab 23.35%, #cc9ca3 30.32%, #bf9099 37.03%, #b0848e 43.56%, #a27883 50%, #946b78 56.44%, #86606e 62.97%, #7a5564 69.68%, #704d5c 76.65%, #684656 83.97%, #634252 91.72%, #614051 100%)
Mesh
Open in maker →Both colours as stacked radials over a base, laid out by a seeded Poisson-disc sampler — the same seed gives the same mesh forever. Exports as CSS, SVG and PNG.
background-color: #a27883; background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 54.19% 98.04%, rgba(232, 180, 184, 0.731) 0%, rgba(232, 180, 184, 0) 53.97%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 68.78% 42.37%, rgba(97, 64, 81, 0.74) 0%, rgba(97, 64, 81, 0) 47.18%); background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 54.19% 98.04%, oklch(from #e8b4b8 l c h / 0.7308) 0%, rgb(from #e8b4b8 r g b / 0) 53.97%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 68.78% 42.37%, oklch(from #614051 l c h / 0.7396) 0%, rgb(from #614051 r g b / 0) 47.18%);
Report
- white ink: worst 1.80:1 at 0% (fails AA); black ink: worst 2.36:1 at 100% (fails AA) → use black text.
- Neither ink passes AA at the worst point — treat as decorative or add a scrim (rgba(0,0,0,.35) typically lifts white ink past 4:1).
- Banding medium: ~11px bands at 1440px — add grain 22 (≈2% soft-light noise) or shorten the ramp.

Point any MCP client at the shared gradients endpoint and your agent gets the same engine as this page — make_gradient returns CSS with the interpolation space, Tailwind v4, SVG, a PNG URL, a DTCG token and the contrast report in one call; brand_gradients derives the whole contact sheet from a brand or a palette. Read-only, no key. Every gradient is a /gradients/new/… link: open it, refine, paste it back.
