HEX to HPLuv(HuSLp) Converter - Color Space Converter

Also known as the HEX color space.

Source: Hexadecimal color codes originated from early computer graphic design, where there was a need for a concise way to represent colors. Since each RGB channel can have 256 possible values (ranging from 0 to 255), they can be represented as a two-digit hexadecimal number.

Primary name: Hexadecimal color code

It is represented using 6 hexadecimal characters, typically prefixed with '#'. For instance, red can be represented as #FF0000; the first two characters represent the red channel, the middle two represent the green channel, and the last two represent the blue channel. Occasionally, there might be 8 characters where the first two represent transparency (alpha channel), but this is not standard.

Usage: Mainly used in web design and CSS style definitions, but also in other scenarios where a quick and concise representation of color is required.

Pros: Hexadecimal color codes offer a compact representation of colors, making it very suitable for web and coding environments. Cons: To the general public, hexadecimal codes might not be as intuitive as other methods. For instance, seeing #FFA07A might not immediately suggest the color light salmon to most people.

Also known as the HPLuv(HuSLp) color space.There are 3 channels in total,hue,range from 0 to 360.saturation,range from 0 to 100.lightness,range from 0 to 100.

HPLuv is a variant of the HSLuv color space, designed to provide softer tones, focusing primarily on lighter colors.

Known as the HPLuv color space.

Similar to HSLuv, HPLuv defines colors using hue (H), pastel (P), and lightness (L), but with a constraint on saturation to create soft tones that avoid high chromaticity.

HPLuv is commonly used in graphic design and artistic creation, particularly where soft and refined tones are sought.

HPLuv provides a color space that's easy for designers to use, allowing them to create perceptually uniform soft tones, especially suited for designs that need to avoid intense colors.
