Modern UI design extends far beyond simply choosing “blue” or “red.” We’re working with four crucial dimensions:
Hue:- it is the pure color itself – the essence of red in watermelon, the core blue of the ocean.
Shade:- It happens when you add black to that pure color or dominant color, creating those deeper and connective shades, which are a more sophisticated variation you see in premium apps.
Tint:- it is what you get when you add white color, creating these soft, calming pastels perfect for wellness or lifestyle apps.
Tone :- emerges when you mix in gray, producing those nuanced, professional colors that feel mature and trustworthy.
