Build a Copper harmony

tetradic() keeps Copper and adds three partners at equal quarter-turns around the OKLCH hue wheel.

<?php

$harmony = $copper->tetradic();

foreach ($harmony as $color) {
    echo $color->toHex().PHP_EOL;
}
$harmony = $copper->tetradic(); foreach ($harmony as $color) { echo $color->toHex().PHP_EOL; }

Generate a Copper scale

Keep the original hue and chroma, then vary OKLCH lightness to produce perceptually ordered steps.

<?php

$oklch = $copper->to('oklch');

foreach ([0.97, 0.92, 0.84, 0.74, 0.66, 0.58, 0.48, 0.40, 0.32, 0.24, 0.16] as $lightness) {
    $step = $oklch->withChannel('l', $lightness);
}
$oklch = $copper->to('oklch'); foreach ([0.97, 0.92, 0.84, 0.74, 0.66, 0.58, 0.48, 0.40, 0.32, 0.24, 0.16] as $lightness) { $step = $oklch->withChannel('l', $lightness); }

Format Copper for the web

The same object can emit a compact Hex value, an sRGB CSS function, or its perceptual OKLCH coordinates.

<?php

$hex   = $copper->toHex();
$rgb   = $copper->toCss('srgb');
$oklch = $copper->to('oklch')->toCss();
$hex = $copper->toHex(); $rgb = $copper->toCss('srgb'); $oklch = $copper->to('oklch')->toCss();
