|---|---|---|
| Complementary | +180° | #ffb0f3 |
| Analogous | −30°, +30° | #afea35#00f6e6 |

| Split-complementary | +150°, +210° | #e6c0ff#ffb8c8 |
Computed in OKLCH: the hue is rotated by 180° (complementary), ±30° (analogous), ±120° (triadic) and 180° ±30° (split-complementary) while lightness and chroma stay fixed. Results that fall outside sRGB are brought back with the CSS Color 4 gamut mapping algorithm. Because this uses OKLCH, the values differ from tools that rotate hue in HSL, but every color keeps the same perceived lightness.
