Why these three
The opposition backed off by 30 degrees either side, which keeps the contrast without the vibration.
- SeedSHA-256 of
figma-no-drama-01, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 236°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks split, which adds 0°, 150°, 210°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — +9.3°, +11.2°, −10.2° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
- Result
#4e4696245° at 53% saturation, 59% value#be985b37° at 52% saturation, 74% value#7a933776° at 63% saturation, 58% value
Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the colour it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
