Frequently Asked Questions

What is the HSL color model and why do web designers prefer it?

HSL stands for Hue (0-360 deg color angle), Saturation (0-100% color intensity), and Lightness (0-100% brightness). Designers prefer HSL because creating hover states or tint variations is as simple as adjusting the lightness number without shifting the underlying hue.

Can CMYK perfectly match RGB on a monitor?

RGB is an additive light model used for illuminated digital screens, while CMYK is a subtractive ink model used for physical print. Some vibrant screen colors in RGB fall outside the reproducible CMYK printing gamut.
