# State Farm gradient

Gradients derived from State Farm's published colour tokens (nominative use; no brand assets). Deterministic: the same values are served as `--brand-gradient*` in the brand's brand.css.

## Brand gradient

ΔE_OK 0.113 < 0.15 between #d62311 and #a11b13 — a 2-stop would read as a flat fill, so this is a tonal ramp of #d62311.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #ff7863 0%, #d62311 50%, #890000 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#ff7863] via-[#d62311] to-[#890000]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 2.59:1 fail · black 2.06:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.ff7863-d62311-890000?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter

## Hero background

Chroma ×0.35 so it can carry text; ink white (inkFor at the midpoint). L shifted −0.16 until the ink passes AA at the worst point (4.58:1).

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #996a61 0%, #6c352b 50%, #321111 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#996a61] via-[#6c352b] to-[#321111]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 4.58:1 AA · black 1.22:1 fail · banding high · ink #ffffff

## Button / CTA

ΔL 0.08 top→bottom in the primary's hue (a lit surface, not a rainbow); hover L +0.03, active L −0.03. L shifted −0.04 so white ink passes AA on the surface and both states (worst 4.51:1).

- CSS: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #d62311 0%, #b90000 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-b/oklch from-[#d62311] to-[#b90000]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.11:1 AA · black 3.06:1 AA-large · banding high · ink #ffffff

## Tonal ramp

- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#ff7863] via-[#d62311] to-[#890000]`

## Analogous

Partner hue from the analogous rule at the source colour's lightness.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #d62311 0%, #d0186f 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#d62311] to-[#d0186f]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.10:1 AA · black 4.04:1 AA-large · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.d62311-d0186f?a=135

## Complementary

Partner hue from the complementary rule at the source colour's lightness. ΔH 180° > 140° — interpolating in oklch (shorter hue) keeps the midpoint saturated.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #d62311 0%, #158494 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#d62311] to-[#158494]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 4.39:1 AA-large · black 4.09:1 AA-large · banding medium
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.d62311-158494?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter

## Triadic

Partner hue from the triadic rule at the source colour's lightness.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #d62311 0%, #168c44 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#d62311] to-[#168c44]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 4.30:1 AA-large · black 4.10:1 AA-large · banding medium

## CSS custom properties (brand.css)

  --brand-gradient-button: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #d62311 0%, #b90000 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-hover: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #e1311f 0%, #c40000 100%);

## Gradient maker

Every maker URL is the gradient's state: `/gradients/new/v1.<hex>-<hex>[_pos]?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter&e=soft&g=8`. Hand one to a human, let them refine, and read the link they return.
