Flax
A pastel lime with the freshness of a spring lime.
Create Flax in PHP
Parse the catalog’s canonical value once, then keep the resulting color object throughout the rest of your code.
<?php
use PhpColor\Color\Color;
$flax = Color::parse('#EEDC82');ColorInterface
$flax
#eedc82 · oklch(0.8900 0.1126 98.3)
Build a Flax harmony
tetradic() keeps Flax and adds three partners at equal quarter-turns around the OKLCH hue wheel.
<?php
$harmony = $flax->tetradic();
foreach ($harmony as $color) {
echo $color->toHex().PHP_EOL;
}- 0
#eedc82 - 1
#77f3e9 - 2
#c9d4ff - 3
#ffbbcc
Generate a Flax scale
Keep the original hue and chroma, then vary OKLCH lightness to produce perceptually ordered steps.
<?php
$oklch = $flax->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 Flax for the web
The same object can emit a compact Hex value, an sRGB CSS function, or its perceptual OKLCH coordinates.
<?php
$hex = $flax->toHex();
$rgb = $flax->toCss('srgb');
$oklch = $flax->to('oklch')->toCss();- hex
#eedc82- rgb
rgb(238 220 130)- oklch
