Colour to colour
Rose Gold to Dark Olive Green gradient
Rose Gold (#b76e79) into Dark Olive Green (#556b2f) — 116° 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, #b76e79 0%, #556b2f 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, #b76e79 0%, #556b2f 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, #b76e79 0%, #b66e78 8.28%, #b26e75 16.03%, #ac6f71 23.35%, #a46f6b 30.32%, #9c6f64 37.03%, #926f5d 43.56%, #886f56 50%, #7e6e4e 56.44%, #736e46 62.97%, #6a6d3f 69.68%, #626c39 76.65%, #5b6c34 83.97%, #576b30 91.72%, #556b2f 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: #886f56; background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 19.15% 90.16%, rgba(183, 110, 121, 0.766) 0%, rgba(183, 110, 121, 0) 54.17%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 76.54% 92.17%, rgba(85, 107, 47, 0.756) 0%, rgba(85, 107, 47, 0) 58.73%); background-image: radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 19.15% 90.16%, oklch(from #b76e79 l c h / 0.7656) 0%, rgb(from #b76e79 r g b / 0) 54.17%), radial-gradient(circle farthest-corner at 76.54% 92.17%, oklch(from #556b2f l c h / 0.7562) 0%, rgb(from #556b2f r g b / 0) 58.73%);
Report
- white ink: worst 3.80:1 at 0% (AA-large only); black ink: worst 3.53:1 at 100% (AA-large only) → use white 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 high: ~15px bands at 1440px — add grain 30 (≈2% soft-light noise) or shorten the ramp.
