Monochromatic Color

Monochromatic Color Scheme

A palette using variations of a single hue through different tints, shades, and tones for subtle, cohesive designs.

기술 세부사항

The monochromatic color is based on the three primary models: RYB (traditional pigment), RGB (additive light), and CMYK (subtractive print). In the perceptually uniform OKLCH color space, equal numerical distances correspond to equal perceived differences — unlike HSL where a 10-degree hue shift appears dramatically different at different lightness levels. Modern CSS supports oklch() natively, enabling designers to create harmonies with mathematically consistent perceptual contrast.

예시

```css
/* HSL color system for design tokens */
:root {
  --hue-primary: 225;  /* blue */
  --primary-50:  hsl(var(--hue-primary), 100%, 97%);
  --primary-500: hsl(var(--hue-primary), 84%, 60%);
  --primary-900: hsl(var(--hue-primary), 84%, 15%);
}

/* Change --hue-primary to theme entire site */
```
