Monochromatic color

Monochromatic color is based on a single base hue and its variations. It is created by adjusting the brightness and saturation of the original hue to generate visual harmony. On the color wheel, this corresponds to taking a color and deriving lighter shades (by adding white), darker shades (by adding black), or desaturated shades (by adding gray).This type of palette is often used to create elegant and cohesive designs while limiting visual contrast. The five squares generated represent different shades of this monochromatic color.
