#216e82rgb(33, 110, 130)hsl(192, 60%, 32%)oklch(0.501 0.079 219)Charcoal, Crimson and Rust lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal is the text near-black for #216e82: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette.
