Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Hot Pink** #ff69b4 [harmony: complementary] — Hot Pink sits directly opposite #0affde on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/hotpink
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the text near-black for #0affde: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette. Seen in: Canopy (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/cool#canopy). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
