#29162drgb(41, 22, 45)hsl(290, 34%, 13%)oklch(0.237 0.05 320.5)Charcoal, Dark Olive Green and Sea Green 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 #29162d: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette.
Dark Olive Green is a split-complement of #29162d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Sea Green sits directly opposite #29162d on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Sienna completes a triad with #29162d — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash.
Slate Blue is #29162d's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
Teal is a split-complement of #29162d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Amber is paired with #29162d in 15 real palettes, including Wikipedia's brand system and Blueprint, as the accent — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Blue is paired with #29162d in 22 real palettes, including Sketch's brand system and Warp's brand system, as the accent — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
