Horizon

Summary

Horizon is a sequential colormap from cmasher. Lightness rises monotonically from 0.29 to 1.00, hue sweeps 218° from green to magenta, and order holds under all three colorblind simulations.

Sunset-toned sequential.

Perceptual profile (OKLCh)

• Lightness: 0.288 → 1.000 (range 0.712, min 0.288, max 1.000); monotonic; midpoint 0.639
• Chroma: min 0.000, max 0.131, mean 0.079
• Hue: 142.3° → 0.0° (span 217.7°), path monotonic-cw; quadrants: green, mint, cyan, azure, blue, violet, magenta
• Endpoint temperature: warm → null
• Perceptual ΔE: total 104.4, mean/step 0.409, max step 0.478, smoothness 0.920, speed 0.409
