Hue Saturation Brightness

Hue Saturation Brightness is a way to describe and control color in design by breaking it into three parts: hue is the type of color, saturation is how pure or intense the color is, and brightness is how light or dark the color appears. Designers often use this system to match colors across different materials and lighting conditions, making sure that a color looks the same on a screen, in print, or on a product. Changing the saturation or brightness can help a color stand out or blend in, which is useful for creating focus or harmony in a design. Many digital tools let designers adjust these three parts separately, which helps when fine-tuning the look of a project or making sure colors work well together in a palette.
