Thistle
A light, warm magenta with the energy of a warm sky.
Create Thistle 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;
$thistle = Color::parse('#D8BFD8');ColorInterface
$thistle
#d8bfd8 · oklch(0.8333 0.0439 326.0)
Build a Thistle harmony
tetradic() keeps Thistle and adds three partners at equal quarter-turns around the OKLCH hue wheel.
<?php
$harmony = $thistle->tetradic();
foreach ($harmony as $color) {
echo $color->toHex().PHP_EOL;
}- 0
#d8bfd8 - 1
#e0c2ae - 2
#b7d1b8 - 3
#aecee2
Generate a Thistle scale
Keep the original hue and chroma, then vary OKLCH lightness to produce perceptually ordered steps.
<?php
$oklch = $thistle->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 Thistle for the web
The same object can emit a compact Hex value, an sRGB CSS function, or its perceptual OKLCH coordinates.
<?php
$hex = $thistle->toHex();
$rgb = $thistle->toCss('srgb');
$oklch = $thistle->to('oklch')->toCss();- hex
#d8bfd8- rgb
rgb(216 191 216)- oklch
