radial

Cool Slate to Warm Stone

A gradient that walks the line between cool and warm grey — the kind of tonal shift you'd find in a museum white-cube wall painted with two adjacent batches of paint. The 315° radial places slate at the upper-left and lets stone fill the lower-right. Both ends sit at >65% lightness with very low saturation, creating an almost imperceptible warm-cool transition.

About this gradient

A gradient that walks the line between cool and warm grey — the kind of tonal shift you'd find in a museum white-cube wall painted with two adjacent batches of paint. The 315° radial places slate at the upper-left and lets stone fill the lower-right. Both ends sit at >65% lightness with very low saturation, creating an almost imperceptible warm-cool transition.

Colour story

#ABABBA is cool slate (HSL 240°, 8% S, 70% L) — pure grey with the slightest blue lean. #BAABB2 is warm stone (HSL 333°, 8% S, 70% L). Matched 8% saturation and identical lightness create the gradient's 'colour temperature shift only' quality. The hue gap is large in degrees but functionally invisible at this saturation level.

#BAABB2
