I'm a fan of HSLuv (https://www.hsluv.org/comparison/) for design work (when sRGB is fine and you don't need P3 colors). It's perceptual uniformity like Lab, but has familiar looking hue, saturation and lightness sliders instead like you'd see in a regular HSL color picker. I've used HSLuv for an accessible palette editor (https://www.inclusivecolors.com/), so you get the familiarity of an HSL color picker, but unlike with HSL, when you change hue or saturation, the lightness and WCAG contrast stay the same, which makes HSLuv a great for exploring accessible color combinations without breaking the contrast you've set up already between your existing color pairs. OKLCH is becoming a popular choice if you need P3 colors and perceptual uniformity because it's built into CSS now, but I find the colors pickers for OKLCH tend to look really complex and unfamiliar to use so I'm skeptical it's going to get popular with designers (it's mostly developers recommending OKLCH that are interested in the technical/coding part rather than the design part?). What are good choices if you want P3, perceptual uniformity, and an intuitive color picker UI? |
