Copper to Teal gradient
Copper (#b87333) into Teal (#008080) — 134° 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, #b87333 0%, #008080 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, #b87333 0%, #008080 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, #b87333 0%, #b67335 8.28%, #b2753a 16.03%, #aa7641 23.35%, #a17848 30.32%, #967a51 37.03%, #897c59 43.56%, #7b7d61 50%, #6b7e68 56.44%, #5b7f6f 62.97%, #4a8074 69.68%, #388079 76.65%, #24807d 83.97%, #0f807f 91.72%, #008080 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: #7b7d61; background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 82.69% 11.35%, rgba(184, 115, 51, 0.769) 0%, rgba(184, 115, 51, 0) 53%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 43.66% 74.72%, rgba(0, 128, 128, 0.896) 0%, rgba(0, 128, 128, 0) 46.88%); background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 82.69% 11.35%, oklch(from #b87333 l c h / 0.7688) 0%, rgb(from #b87333 r g b / 0) 53%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 43.66% 74.72%, oklch(from #008080 l c h / 0.8961) 0%, rgb(from #008080 r g b / 0) 46.88%);
Report
- white ink: worst 3.79:1 at 0% (AA-large only); black ink: worst 4.40:1 at 100% (AA-large only) → use black text.
- Body text fails AA everywhere on this gradient; large text (≥24px / 19px bold) is fine. Add a scrim or lower the chroma for body copy.
- Banding medium: ~8px bands at 1440px — add grain 15 (≈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.
