Color Converter
Convert a color to HEX, RGB, HSL, HSB, and CMYK at once.
Understanding Color Models and Conversions
This all-in-one converter takes a single HEX color and instantly expresses it in every model you need for web and print: normalized HEX, RGB, HSL, HSB/HSV, and CMYK. Translating between these spaces is essential for matching brand guidelines, writing CSS, and preparing artwork for print.
HEX & RGB
HEX is a base-16 form of RGB. Both describe an additive mix of red, green, and blue light (0–255 per channel) — the native model for screens and CSS.
HSL & HSB
Both use Hue (0–360°) but differ on the rest: HSL pairs Saturation with Lightness, while HSB (a.k.a. HSV) pairs Saturation with Brightness — the model most color pickers use.
CMYK
Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black) is the subtractive model used by printers. The values here are a device-independent approximation — exact output depends on your paper and ICC profile.
100% client-side
Every formula runs in your browser — no color data is ever uploaded. Need a single direction instead? Try the dedicated HEX → RGB, RGB → HSL, or HEX → CMYK tools.
