How to Use This Tool
- Set Color A and Color B with the hex inputs or color pickers.
- Drag the Mix ratio slider to choose what proportion of Color B to mix in.
- Read the blended hex and rgb() in the result panel.
- Browse the 11-step gradient below for any intermediate shade.
- Click the copy icon to copy the blended hex.
What Is a Color Blender?
Color blending is linear interpolation in sRGB space. Given colors A and B and a mix ratio t between 0 and 1, the result is `out = A × (1 − t) + B × t` applied independently to each RGB channel. At t = 0 you get pure A; at t = 1 you get pure B; at t = 0.5 you get the perceptual midpoint.
Designers use a blender to find a third brand color halfway between two existing ones; engineers use it to step a UI accent between hover and active states; chart designers use it to interpolate a series between two anchor colors.
The blender shows the midpoint plus an 11-step gradient strip so you can pick any intermediate notch at a glance. Linear sRGB blending is a reasonable approximation for most colors but can dip through muddy mid-grays when mixing complementaries — for perceptually smoother blends, try the gradient generator with an oklab interpolation hint.
