🎨 Figma Plugin: OKLCH Color Variations
Use this Plugin to generate Color Palettes with Variations in the OKLCH Color Space. The shades can vary across Lightness, Chroma, Hue.
The ability to control these individual parameters makes it perfect for building palettes to be used in interface design, because you can use the shades that vary in these parameters to establish hierarchy, contrast, attention, etc
Why OKLCH over HSL?
Even HSL allows you to think of colors as these individual parameters, but HSL is not perfect. Different Hues with same Luminescence, and Saturation values can produce colors with different contrast levels (for example, yellow and blue).This makes it hard to consistently produce accessible color palettes for Interface Design.
OKLCH color space solves this because it’s modelled to be close to human perception of color.
