Mesh Gradient Generator
Layer four colors into a soft mesh-style CSS background.
Soft mesh-style gradients
Mesh gradients — several colors blended across a surface — give backgrounds a rich, modern, almost painterly feel that a single linear gradient cannot. This generator layers colors into a soft mesh-style CSS background with a live preview.
True mesh gradients are complex, but layering radial gradients approximates the effect with pure CSS and no image. Adjust the colors and positions, preview the blend, and copy the background CSS for a lush hero or section.
Copy-ready mesh
The effect layers several radial gradients at different positions to fake a mesh in plain CSS. Generated in your browser, nothing uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
What does the mesh gradient generator do?
It layers several radial gradients over a base color and returns pure CSS background code.
How is the mesh effect built?
Three radial gradients fade from your colors to transparent at different positions (top left, top right, and bottom center) over a solid base color, all in one background value.
How do I make the blend softer?
Increase the transparent stop percentages in the output, such as 35% to 55%, so each color spreads further before fading, or choose colors closer in hue.
Is it a true mesh gradient?
No. Real mesh gradients need vector software or canvas. Layered radial gradients give a similar soft, organic look with pure CSS and no image file.
